                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Hi All!!! </strong><br /><br /></p>
<p>First I would thank all of you, you were the place I would run for when I was having a breakdown because of my ileostomy.</p>
<p>Today I came to present my problem in the right place and I know that I will find good answers as usual. <br />I had an ileostomy reversal more than one year ago and all is good now in a matter of health, but in the matter of beauty things look out of control a little bit 😹. </p>
<p>When I had my reversal surgery they surprisingly closed all the place where my stoma was and I knew it may cause infection because I’ve seen many people on YouTube talk about their closure and their doctors left a spot open in their stoma place, but mine was fully closed. After a few days mine got infected 😫 and they had to reopen it and cleaned it and then they left it open to close it self and what a surprise it did close itself. </p>
<p>Now after a more than one year as I said I'm all good but I don’t feel confident at all with this hole in my abdomen :( , it looks very ugly and I can't look at it I feel angry and depressed. I'm asking if you know any tips that will make it better or a surgery to fix it it would be great for me and my confidant. </p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Thank you all!!</strong></p>]]></content:encoded>
