Good Afternoon, I have been irrigating about 10 years and currently use mestopore patches. However, the adhesive has been irritating my skin for the past few months. Has anyone got any suggestions regarding a skin friendly stoma cover? thanks, Diamond

Hi Diamond,
Cavilon No Sting Barrier Film (from 3M in a spray bottle or individual wipes) is a product I have used to protect the skin, and I find it works to a point; however, some people find it decreases the ability of the flange to adhere to the areas covered with the film.
