I had my j-pouch removal and permanent ileostomy on 7/29. The front incision healed well and my rear incision healed except for a 1/4" opening. I've alternated between keeping it as dry as possible and applying Aquaphor ointment to help it heal.
It still has not closed. Any tips to get it to close quickly? I plan to go skiing and hiking through the winter and would like to have it healed.
