What is the difference between a colostomy bag and an ostomy bag?
An ostomy is an often lifesaving procedure that reroutes bodily waste during a surgical procedure. There are several different types of ostomy surgery: colostomy, urostomy and ileostomy. All three surgeries result in the creation of stoma on the outside of the body. Waste exits the body through the stoma and into an ostomy bag or pouch. The ostomy bag you choose must be tailored to the type of stoma you have.

What’s the difference between one-piece and two-piece ostomy bags?
You have two choices when it comes to ostomy bags: one-piece or two-piece. One-piece pouching systems include a bag and an attached adhesive skin barrier. Two-piece pouching systems include a bag and a separate skin barrier base plate which the bag snaps into. Factors to think about before you pick a system include: your stoma type and construction, body shape, desired concealment and your activity level.2

How often do I need to change my ostomy pouch?
Generally, you should change your ostomy bag every 3 to 5 days.3 Changing too frequently or wearing one too long may be damaging to the skin.4 Times may differ based on your own unique needs, so talk with your healthcare team about your daily pouch routine and read all appliance manufacturer instructions. If you have leakage, you should change your bag immediately.
How do I handle ostomy bag odor?
Ostomy bags are made to contain odor and odor only escapes once you open your bag to empty or change it. However, if your bag is not leaking, and you’re still concerned about odor, you can use a deodorizing product specifically designed to go in the pouch. You can also choose a pouching system with a built-in charcoal filter. Types of ostomy bag odor control products include: sprays, drops, charcoal tablets and lubricating deodorant.
In addition to using physical products, you can also change your diet. Try reducing or eliminating gas causing foods including carbonated beverages, alcohol, beans, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, onions and nuts. Don’t drink through a straw or chew gum.
