Hi: I  have swelling on my abdomen on the side with my stoma. It is tender to the touch. I am going to see the surgeon tomorrow, but, has anyone had this before?

Thank you

Pray for Peace, Hana

I am having swelling above my stoma right now. It has been going on for about a month but have not gone to the doctor. I would be curious to hear what the doctor said to you about this.
