Ostomy belts attach to your pouch and wrap around your waist for a comfortable and secure fit while providing support to compensate for the weight of your ostomy bag. This is especially helpful when you’re engaging in physical activity such as yoga, running or walking, or weight lifting.
To make sure your ostomy pouch will stay secure without leaks, apply your skin barrier to clean skin. Also, be sure your peristomal skin is dry before applying your pouching system. In other words, if you’ve been sweating or swimming or if you’ve just recently taken a bath or shower, dry your skin with a clean towel.
If the skin surrounding your stoma is weepy, raw, rashy, or irritated, your skin is telling you something is wrong. Not only will skin conditions like this make it harder to keep your ostomy appliance secure and properly sealed, but it can also cause more issues down the road if left ignored.
