How To Avoid Leakage Of Ileostomy Bag?

my moms ileostomy bag keeps leaking, her drainage is pasty, she is a small woman. She does have creases and we have added the paste in creases and seem to have helped, we do use a skin prep, But it is still leaking at least twice a day. Is there something that you can recommend. Also will talking a lot produce more out put, just curious?
