- 6 weeks post op and partial stoma blockages have been my most frequent complication! I am now onto my 8th ileostomy blockage
Therefore I decided to create this video to share with you what to watch out for and 7 different ways you can help unblock a stoma blockage.
*******Disclaimer- everything I share is the advice I have been given from my stoma nurses, but if you are worried please contact your medical team.

THANK YOU! We were getting ready to head to hospital when I pulled up your video. It worked! After 2 days of being blocked, it's moving now. Thanks for being kind enough to share your video! Hope things stay well for you 😊
Ugghhh i think I’m dealing with my first partial blockage right now, I’m 1.5 weeks out from surgery. Thank you for sharing!!
I hope this helps! Walking and gentle twisting is good too! Mine eventually cleared but took way longer than normal- if you are worried speak to your nurse 👩⚕️ ❤️ keep me updated xxx
Well done for these videos clear concise and right on the mark and most important honest … found this really helpful with my first partial blockage x
Thank you these videos. I’m 26 have had an ileostomy since 15. For 10 years never had any blockages at all. In May I had a complete obstruction from a Bezoar and had an endoscopy. And now I’m dealing at home with a partial blockage. Get output when I drink Prune Juice. But struggling without it and nothing solid. Hoping it passes
I used to use lactulose too- works very well!
Another awesome video! I starting to worry that I might have a partial blockage. The last two days I’ve only had small amounts of liquid in my bag. But I’m eating normally. Now if I sneeze I get pain just below the stoma. That’s a new symptom I haven’t had before in that area.
And I agree your looking quite well and perky.
Pain is quite common especially if things have been getting backed up for a while. I would stick to liquids for a while to get your digestion a break! And thank-you! Feeling perky :)
Thank you for all of that so very very helpfull thank you and i do hope you feel better so very soon god bless you
It’s been 4.5 years since my surgery and I still occasionally screw up and eat something I shouldn’t ☹️
a tip: watch series on flixzone. Been using them for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.
@Eric Marcelo Yea, I've been using flixzone for since december myself :D
Thanks for tips...keep smiling...
Always!
How do you guys get thru em so quick I'm normally in the hospital for days and getting pain meds because I'm bent over and cannot move
Thanks for making these videos i think i have a blockage now Iam in so much pain and haven't had any movement in a couple days. Iam extremely bloated and dont know what to do!
Try some lactulose if all else fails
Now my current situation is every 2 or 3 week I'm facing blockage ... I'm from Malaysia.
so sorry to hear this- hope you are feeling better now!
Oranges is the only thing that I have noticed does this to me, I've been dealing with this for like 3 hours
I am yet to attempt fruits like oranges- I have heard horror stories!
The agony i had one this week i ate a banana wtf went to hospital after 10 hours as i had to wait 2 hours i vomited then my stoma started working and decided to leave the hospital
How is cause for your stoma?
I have Hypermobility which caused colonic inertia (my large bowel stopped working).
Question what the sign that it’s completely unblocked ? Is it more solid output rather than just liquid
And my Mother had a stoma.
Xxx
Im almost 1 week blockages. What can i do?
Get some lactulose! I always have some in the house
@@gutmylifeback7926 NO, DO NOT TAKE LAXATIVES WITH AN OSTOMY THAT MAKES THE PAIN SO MUCH WORSE!😖
Next time try eating around 200 to 250 grams of grapes, if they are in season of course, that should bring results. 🦘 🦘
Does the skin not give you blockages?
@@gutmylifeback7926 It should be okay if you chew them up. 🐨 🦘
Not me! I live on a cherry farm and the skin almost killed me
@@wondertwin13 the skin scares me!
@@MrOGREATWISEONE rubbish. Awful advise
