    • If the skin damage is in the outer rim it might help if you can shift the adhesive so it covers a slightly different area of the skin around the stoma each time. This can be done by repositioning the cut of the hole in the adhesive.
    • If you’re still experiencing problems, there are less sticky types of adhesives that might help you. Please call Consumer Care on 1800 653 317 for further guidance.
