What is Colostomy Care and Complications about?

A colostomy is a surgical procedure where a section of the colon is diverted through an opening in the abdomen to allow waste to exit the body. It is performed when the colon, rectum, or anus cannot function normally due to conditions like cancer, injury, obstruction, or inflammatory bowel disease. After surgery, waste exits through the stoma and is collected in an external pouch. Proper care of the stoma and pouch is needed to prevent complications and allow the person to continue normal activities.
