What if I have a problem while travelling with a colostomy?

It is understandable to worry about leaks, discomfort, or unexpected output changes while you are away from home. The best approach is to plan for the possibility without assuming it will happen. Keep supplies easy to reach, include spare clothing, and allow extra time in your journey so you do not feel rushed. If a problem does happen, being able to step into a toilet, freshen up, and change calmly can make it much less upsetting than you may imagine. Many people discover that even if they do have a small issue once, it becomes a learning experience that helps them feel more prepared next time.
