What is Ostomy?
An ostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an opening (stoma) in the body to allow waste to bypass damaged or diseased organs. This life-changing surgery is often performed for individuals with conditions such as colorectal cancer, Crohn’s disease, or severe bowel or bladder issues.
The stoma, a small, moist, red opening on the abdomen, connects to a pouch system that collects waste. Ostomies can be temporary or permanent, depending on the medical condition being treated. There are three main types: Colostomy, Ileostomy, Urostomy
Ostomies can be an adjustment, but with the right care, individuals can lead full, active lives. The procedure offers relief from chronic health challenges and significantly improves quality of life. Support systems, like medical professionals and ostomy communities, play a vital role in this transition.
Remember, living with an ostomy is about adaptation and empowerment. With proper education and care, an ostomy becomes a manageable part of life.
