I have had an ileostomy for two years now, and I am starting to see little red and white lumps on my stoma. What is the cause? They are not bleeding. Thanks, Peter.

G-Day Daddy,

Have you talked to your stoma nurse or doctor?

Possibly granulomas. I would put a blob of Sudocrem on them if it were me. I know the health care system is different in Ireland compared to the UK's. If you use a home delivery service for your products, do they have a stoma nurse you can speak to or see?

Went to a stoma nurse; she said it was a small granuloma but nothing to worry about at the minute. She said to keep an eye on it and come back if it is annoying me, gets sore, or bleeds.
