The adhesive loosens while doing sports and activities

Strenuous physical activity or any activity with repetitive movements can result in the adhesive loosening and ultimately lead to leakage.

IMPORTANT! If you have any concerns – such as skin problems or how to use new products – you should always consult your stoma care nurse.

  • Consider wearing tight or elastic underwear that cover the ostomy when playing sport to help prevent the adhesive edges from rolling.

 

 

  • It may help to change your appliance a couple of hours before doing your physical activity. This way the adhesive will have time to settle while still being relatively newly changed.
