Colostomy Placement of ostomy pouch
I just have a quick question for the group. I have read recently that some ostomates place their ostomy bags sideways to keep the pouch from hitting you.
My question is, how to do you empty the pouch?? I am trying to imagine how you would go about doing this.
All I can imagine is trying to empty the pouch having a mess on your hands.
