What product are you using? I was allergic to the Stomahesive barrier from
ConvaTec and had weeping, sore skin. I went to the Durahesive barrier from
ConvaTec and use the eakin seal and have had no problems since. (knock on
wood). It was a major difference and life is much better. I try to remember
to change weekly, but have gone 2 weeks and longer before changing - depends
on the foods I eat since roughage (salads, veggies) tend to eat away at the
barrier.
