If you\u2019ve got a stoma, chances are you\u2019ve heard people mention blockages at some point and they can sound pretty scary. I remember being told about them early on and thinking, \u201cright, that doesn\u2019t sound ideal.\u201d The reality is they can happen, but they\u2019re not inevitable, and there are things you can do to reduce your risk. I\u2019ve only had one in nearly five years, so I wanted to share what happened, what I learned, and what I now do to avoid them.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n
