How to Correctly Cut a Flange...
Make sure if you cut the flange your- self to fit the stoma that no skin is really showing or just 1/8” bigger than the stoma itself.
If it is cut too big, waste will get under the wafer and sit on the skin. Acids and enzymes in the feces will start to make the skin red and possibly break it down.
If your stoma is flush (flat and does not stick out and is close to the skin) then using a convex insert with the flange or using a wafer that has convexity built into it is a good idea. It will help the stoma protrude more and minimize the possibility of stool or urine getting under the flange and sitting on the skin. n
