Traveling with a stoma can cause some anxiety, but with careful planning and the right supplies, you can enjoy your journey with confidence and peace of mind. In this blog post, we share the essential items you should include in your stoma travel kit, enabling you to navigate your adventures smoothly and enjoy every moment.
Accessories
COMFORT flange extenders as a solution product to increase pouch longevity during Summer when you might not be able to make pouch changes as often as usual. If you’re limited on space, try our our REFRESH 3 in 1 which comes as a handy travel size of 50ml.
Extra supplies
It’s wise to pack additional pouches, seals, and any other accessories you typically use. We suggest packing at least double the amount you typically use in a day to account for unexpected delays or emergencies.
Wipes
Keep dry wipes handy during pouch changes. It’s advisable to avoid using baby wipes as they may leave a residue that could irritate the skin surrounding your stoma.
Disposable bags
These are a discreet option to dispose of your bags contents when needed. If you’re concerned about odour, scented bags are available.
Deodoriser
A few drops of deodoriser can effectively neutralise any unwanted odours.
