I've had my ileostomy for 3 years. My stoma bleeds a bit around the sides when I'm cleaning it too. It's fairly normal.
In all those years have you ever had a blockage or any surgeries?

Thank you for your reply. 🙂
Yes, I've gone to the ER I think, around 3 times. When I couldn't help myself at home. Only, for the blockage to start to move by the time I got in an ER room. I blame myself as I ate popcorn, coconut macaroons all within a few days of each other. Can't do that. Needed to hydrate more often. 8, 8-ounces of water a day. 64 ozs. total. No surgeries. And no skin issues other than a bit of irritations from so much humidity in the summer. I use a lot of Nystatin Powder.
