Strip paste made from chewing gum provide's a very good leak proof fit round the stoma.
After you've chewed the gum in your mouth you then bring it down to your stoma and stick it on the skin to use as a paste after applying a barrier wipe. You then stick the base plate on with frying oil and apply the bag, which has an opening at the bottom which you close up with a padlock after you empty your bag, but, remember to clean your skin with yoghurt, it helps to make the colostomy bag stick better.
Another good skin prep is a load of peas. You stick peas on the side of your stoma in order to prevent the bag from leaking.
If the stoma grows to five foot long see a doctor as soon as possible otherwise the stoma could wrap itself round your neck and stop you breathing.
