Is it sewn in place? Super glued?
Also does it hurt to touch?
I know a few people with Chrons disease but thought it maybe inappropriate to ask them!

An “-ostomy” is any surgery that creates a stoma. For a colonostomy, the stoma is formed by joining a surgical opening in the large intestine (colon) to a surgical opening in the abdomimal wall. Edges of the intestine are sutured to the edges of the abdominal opening, creating a stoma that leads to the colon (hence, a colonostomy).
Once secured, the tissues eventually fuse (like any other healing process). Once healed, there is usually no pain.
