If you mean a surgically created opening to the urinary bladder or to the intestines, or for a tracheostomy, they are open. e.g. A stoma IS always open. A temporary stoma may be made and later closed, but by definition, stoma is an "opening".
1. Picture of trach stoma. - This shows a trach stoma cap which protects the stoma.
2. Picture of a loop ileostomy. -- Whether the stoma opens to bowel or bladder, the outside of the stoma appears basically the same. If for bladder, a small flexible tube is kept put through the stoma; a see-through "bag" attached to the skin (or upper thigh) collects the urine which the person must dump. The tubing is replaced periodically. If for bowel, a see through pouch is affixed onto the skin, over the stoma, to collect feces. The feces must be 'dumped' also.
On any stoma, the area must be cleansed or the tender tissue can break down, bleed, become infected, etc.
A stoma or ostomy is a pink and moist hole in the stomach made under surgical procedure. Stoma has three types which are: the colostomy, ileostomy and the urostomy
A patient who has undergone a colostomy or ileostomy procedure typically needs a stoma bag for the rest of their life, as the stoma is a permanent opening in the abdomen for waste elimination. It is important for the patient to work closely with their healthcare provider to ensure proper care and management of the stoma and stoma bag.
A noticeable blanching or lightening of color in the stoma may indicate poor blood supply or ischemia, which could lead to tissue damage or necrosis if left untreated. It is important to seek medical attention promptly if this occurs to prevent complications.

Additionally, the person may experience cramping, discomfort, or nausea. If these symptoms occur, it is important to seek medical attention promptly.

Stoma
In a double-barrel colostomy, the proximal stoma delivers stool from the intestine, while the distal stoma, which is typically non-functioning, may still produce mucus or fluid but does not convey fecal matter. This configuration is often used to divert fecal flow while allowing for healing of the distal bowel or for specific medical conditions. The distal stoma can be referred to as a "mucous fistula" since it may only secrete mucous.
