Hey gang!
Hope you're all doing well, just have a quick comment/question. Over the past few days the skin around my stoma has been itchy, sore, and painful. I just assumed it was yet another break in the skin, which happens frequently. But last night, I changed my flange, and the skin looks absolutely fine, everything looks perfectly healthy, yet I'm have ever increasing, burning hot pain under the skin, which is now radiating out to my right lower abdominal quadrant. It's really beginning to concern me. I really dread going to emerg, so I thought I'd ask you guys if you've ever heard of this, and if so, what was done to stop it? Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated! I don't see Dr Cohen until June 2nd, and my next surgery isn't even booked yet (yeah, I'm still getting constant obstruction, I'm such a train wreck!), so I'm hoping what ever the heck this is it will clear itself, but dam , it hurts, mommy!
Cheers!
Eric
