Also, it might be worth taking some photographs of the little bumps, especially since you have noted some changes. If you have an I phone or something this would be simple. Just take one a week or however many it would take to document whats going on.

Then when you get to a doctor you can show them. It is worth getting it checked out.

I got good help once from a dermatologist, but start with anyone even a nurse or your primary care person. They would refer you to someone else if they don't know.

Let us know. Thanks.

Hi Linda, won’t even guess what they are made up of. What you describe does not sound like a granuloma, why not mention these bumps to the doctor or nurse. 

I echo this sentiment. Linda, have a dermatologist or stoma nurse have a look just to be sure.

Hi Linda, A granuloma can appear any where on the body, it does not only affect Ostomy patients. With a stoma they are at the very edge and can grow quickly. Reason can be infection or a poorly fitting wafer. With me I have no clue why as none of the reasons apply. I have always had a small flap of skin at the stoma site and that’s where the trouble started. Treatments where not working that’s why I decided to have them removed although there is always a chance they can return. Any one using silver nitrate and not knowing what they are doing will cause more harm.
