Question
Doctor! I have broken pelvis , currently using an ostomy and passing urine due to bladder rupture . The doctor asked me, how long does it take to close the colostomy? How likely is it to return to normal? Thank you doctor!

Hello! The issue of colostomy closure requires expert advice from gastroenterologists. As for cystostomy, the catheter can be removed when the bladder heals well and the patient is able to urinate effectively on their own.
So with the question "how long does it take to close the stoma? "I need to go back to a specialist so that the doctor can evaluate the current function of the bladder, from which a decision can be made to withdraw the bladder opener to the skin.
