Noun
/pʊr fɪt kəˈlɑstəri bæɡ/
A "poor-fit colostomy bag" refers to a colostomy bag that does not fit properly on a person's abdomen, which can lead to leaks, discomfort, and skin irritation. Colostomy bags are used by individuals who have undergone a colostomy procedure, where part of the colon is brought to the surface of the abdomen to create a stoma. "Poor-fit" indicates that the bag is ill-suited for the individual's stoma size or shape.
The phrase is primarily used in medical contexts, particularly in discussions about post-operative care for patients with colostomies. It is encountered more frequently in written contexts such as medical literature, patient guides, or forums focused on health and wellness.
The term is less common in everyday conversation but is frequently used among healthcare professionals and patients dealing with colostomy care.

The word "poor" originates from the Old French "povre" and Latin "pauper," meaning lacking richness or wealth. "Fit" comes from the Old Norse "fit," meaning to be suitable or proper. "Colostomy" is derived from two Greek roots: "kolo," meaning "colon," and "stoma," meaning "mouth" or "opening." "Bag" has Germanic roots meaning a container.
