Hi Ricaroo,

People with stomas can access a range of barrier creams and, more importantly if it hurts too much to put creams on, barrier spray. This is specifically designed to create a barrier against stool/mucus/urine and dries in seconds.

Because people have different skins, some sprays can cause a negative reaction but if you could experiment with a range, you might find one that suits.

I suggest talking to a stoma nurse at the hospital where you have treatment to see if they'd be prepared to give you a couple of samples.

Alternatively, you could contact a supply company such as Coloplast and buy some.

They give out free samples but I think you have to have a stoma to get them.
