one piece colostomy bag

1. Clean the skin around the stoma with clean water.
2. A hole has been reserved at the baseplate of the stoma bag. The ostomate can cut a hole at the baseplate according to the type of stoma.
3. Tear off the protective paper at the baseplate.
4. Before fixing the stoma bag, blow a small amount of air into the bag to prevent the bag wall from sticking. Then hold the colostomy bag with both hands, align it with the stoma, and press carefully with your fingers from bottom to top to make it completely stick.

1. Manual discharge
For one piece drainable/ open colosotmy only
Open the seal: loosen the bag clip/ clamp or bag sticker at the end of the ostomy bag.
Push to exhaust: hold the bag tail of the ostomy bag with one hand, and push with the other hand from the upper end of the ostomy bag down to the tail end to discharge the gas in the bag.
Reseal: reseal the tail end of the ostomy bag with a bag clip, clamp or bag sticker.

2. Use a carbon filter sheet device
If the ostomy bag has a built-in carbon filter sheet, the device can absorb gas and odor, thereby effectively reducing gas accumulation. If the ostomy bag does not have a special carbon filter device, you can also manually add the filter sheet and firmly fix it on the ostomy bag to achieve the exhaust function.

In addition, in order to prevent ostomy bag bloating, it is recommended to avoid or reduce the intake of gas-producing foods or drinks in your daily diet, such as onions, cabbage, beans, cucumbers, radishes, cola, soda water, beer, etc. At the same time, proper abdominal massage and exercise can also help promote intestinal l peristalsis and help exhaust.

Please note that if the bloating is severe or accompanied by other discomfort symptoms such as abdominal pain, vomiting, etc., you should seek medical help from a professional doctor in time.

The dietary taboos of people with stomas need to be adjusted according to the type of stoma and individual conditions to avoid discomfort or complications. The diet of people with stomas should focus on easy digestion, low stimulation, and balanced nutrition, while paying attention to avoiding certain foods that may cause problems.

1. High-fiber foods: High-fiber foods such as whole grains, nuts, beans, etc. may increase the burden on the intestines, causing discomfort around the stoma or difficulty in defecation. It is recommended to choose low-fiber foods such as white rice, white bread, peeled fruits, etc. to reduce intestinal irritation.

2. Gas-producing foods: Certain foods such as onions, garlic, beans, carbonated drinks, etc. easily produce gas, which may cause ostomy bag swelling or discomfort. It is recommended to reduce the intake of such foods and choose light and easily digestible foods.

3. Spicy and irritating foods: Spicy foods such as chili, pepper, curry, etc. may irritate the intestines, causing abdominal pain or discomfort during defecation. It is recommended to choose mild condiments and avoid overly spicy or salty foods.

4. High-fat foods: High-fat foods such as fried foods, fatty meat, cream, etc. may delay digestion and increase difficulty in defecation. It is recommended to choose low-fat foods such as steamed fish, chicken breast, vegetables, etc. to help the intestines function normally.

5. Dairy products: Some people with stomas may be lactose intolerant, and they will experience symptoms such as bloating and diarrhea after consuming dairy products. It is recommended to choose lactose-free or low-lactose substitutes, such as soy milk, almond milk, etc.

People with stomas should pay attention to food selection and cooking methods in their daily diet, and avoid foods that may cause discomfort, such as high-fiber, gas-producing, spicy, high-fat and dairy products. At the same time, maintaining a balanced diet and consuming enough protein, vitamins and minerals will help maintain good health.
