Colostomy - Series: Aftercare
In more than 90% of the cases, the surgery is successful.
The patient may experience considerable pain after surgery as the anus tightens and relaxes. Medications to relieve pain may be used. To avoid straining, stool softeners will be used. Avoid any straining during bowel movement or urination. Soaking in a warm bath can bring additional comfort. Depending on the disease process being treated, colostomies can be "taken down" and the colon reconnected in a second operation within weeks to months after the first operation.
