I had 3rd stage colon cancer 15 years ago, so I am a little concerned. I have developed a small bubble on my stoma which is sensitive to the touch. I don't know if it is a polyp or what it is. Has anybody had anything like this? Jane

I've had a few lumps over the years on my stoma, mine have always been granulomas, my nurse/doctor just used silver nitrate on them. You should see your doctor/ostomy nurse as soon as you can to get it checked.

Great place for newbies to learn, I have helped many folks on here learn to irrigate, plus learned a few tricks myself. Great informative site.
