Hello all,
this is my first time posting so I am hoping you guys can give me some ideas. I have what the nurses have described as a fungal rash with an allergic reaction that will not go away under my flange. It seems to be worse under the fabric part (I am in a Hollister 2 piece). I am not really worried about it, except for the fact that every now and then, it makes the flange start peeling off. Any advice on how to stop that?
Thanks

Hey Caityoh, did a nurse suggest antifungal powder? I've heard about it on here, ordered it when I had my temp loop ileo five years ago but never got around to using it. Maybe leaving your appliance off and airing out your skin? Also, it might help to contact Hollister directly and ask for advice and suggestions.
Hi Caityoh, I did experience that once also - my nurse suggested taking some time when you get up in the morning (when there is little activity down there) to remove pouch, have a wash, then apply some anti fungal cream - and leave the pouch off for as long as you can - i think I did it for 20-30 min before washing off and putting pouch back on. I used canesten cream - an antifungal. That worked for me,
