Some of the problems that stoma patients encounter when they are hospitalized, such as excessive anxiety, illness, surgery, medications, and methods of care, are promptly helped by doctors and nurses. But after returning home from the hospital, the recovery process may face a variety of different confusions, such as changes in body shape due to significant weight gain or wasting after surgery, which may lead to leakage of stool or urine; improper use of stoma bags and skin care products may lead to damage of the surrounding skin; and incorrect care methods may lead to some more serious complications. These not only bring inconvenience to the life of stoma patients, but also add to their mental and financial burden, and even affect their work and social activities. Stoma patients are especially reminded here that the establishment of a stoma is often accompanied by certain complications, such as bleeding from the stoma surface, prolapse, paracentral hernia, stenosis, retraction, etc. Only by returning to the hospital for regular follow-up after discharge can timely detection and early intervention be made. Therefore, it is important for stoma patients to have regular follow-up examinations so that medical staff can keep abreast of your physical and psychological recovery, your adaptation to family and society, your adaptation to the stoma, and the effects of radiation and chemotherapy on you and your stoma. Early diagnosis of stoma and surrounding skin complications and appropriate treatment and psychological counseling are of great importance to your recovery. Generally, you will be seen once a month within 3 months after surgery, once every 3 months from 3 months to 2 years after surgery, and once every 6 months from 2 to 5 years. If abnormalities are found, follow up promptly.
