Two Ostomy Questions

by "Mike Fergione" <mike.fergione@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Feb 22, 2007 at 10:53 PM

I have a Urostomy.  No real problems with it, except I have a hernia (of 
course) underneath my stoma.  My guess is, that's pretty normal from
having 
to cut through the muscle to create the stoma.

First, I wear a hernia belt for sup****t, but I take it off at night. 
Should 
I be wearing it 24/7 and not take it off at night?  Is it supposed to help

'heal' a hernia, or does it just help prevent it from getting any worse?

Second question (or third..:-)...what is a stoma cap for?  What does it
do?

Anyone's help is greatly appreciated.
