small red bump in between stoma & skin 1/8th in size. sucker is kind of painful. some days it doesnt hurt at all, then days like this morning it feels a little like its stinging even when im not moving. when i was changing the bag this past time if i barely touched it and i mean a feather touch it hurt. anyone had this and will it go away on its own? i just had a doctor appt to see how im doing but this just popped up literally a day after.

I had this - or at least sounds the same. Sorry, I can't remember what the heck it was called but it was removed with silver nitrate sticks by the EM nurse. I had a few of them and they stung sometimes and other times not. Hopefully that's all it is...these were easily removed.
Thanks hendrix, after one bag change it appeared "deflated" then after another bag change 6 days later it was almost completely gone...i think i can chalk it up to a wafer from before that was too tight and may have scratched the stoma.
