Excoriation (how to treat it)

I used to have excoriation around the stoma where the skin becomes pinkish with light wounds. I have used karaya poweder to somehow treat it.

The other problem is that is has spread within the borders of the flange . What is the best way to treat excoriated skin. When the skin becomes pinkish, the flange easily looses it stick on the skin therefore having leakages.(As if this outer skin is usually wet and slippery)
