I am about 3 months post temporary ileostomy placement. When my stoma size leveled out, it was on the smaller side, just barely above skin level, so I was instructed to use convex appliances. Over the past 2 or 3 weeks, I have noticed my stoma has increased in size by quite a bit. It also sticks out more than usual. I emailed my surgeon who said as long as it doesn't change color, or cause pain it is likely okay and "may" be due to my parastomal hernia getting slightly worse. He wants me to have a followup with an ostomy nurse but am in limbo with my referral. Anyone had this issue?
