Ostomy Swimming Products
Swimming with a stoma is always possible with following recommendations:
It is always possible to practice swimming with the collection bag system placed in its place. For sanitary reasons, you must use a self-adhesive bag to swim in the pool or in the sea.
Keep in mind the following:
Before swimming, remember to empty the bag first and eat or drink lightly.
Choice of a swimsuit
You may want to wear a swimsuit or swimsuit with a coating to get a flatter profile. In Ostocare we have developed our fabrics with colours and materiales that can help disguise the bag system.
For the women:
We recommend our Swimming Ostomy Band made from Spandex specially for use with swimsuits, these come with a pouch to keep the bag in place.
For men:
We recommend the use of a longer suit with wide waist.
You can also consider wearing the Spandex Swimming Ostomy Band under the swimsuit. These are sold on our website with an option for a pouch to hold the ostomy bag in place.
