I didn’t know you could bathe! Any special prep to do?
I clean the area with warm wash cloth and use a powder for moisture, blowing off excess before applying bag.
TY for the input. Whole new world

I bathe when my system is calm and I havent eaten in a while I put a washcloth over stoma just in case it leaks and it really feels great to thoroughly soak and clean area. In between changes I use a warm washcloth also. I use a hairdryer to be sure area is dry before applying new pouch
