A month ago, I was taking off the bag on my 2-piece appliance when I accidentally got a couple of small cuts on my stoma from the plastic around the bag hole. They bled slightly. However, now I seem to have 2 small ulcers/granulas where the cuts healed. There are no problems and they don't hurt or anything. I was just wondering if this has happened to anyone and if I should be worried. I've had them for 2 weeks without any issues.
