I have had a colostomy for 10 years. Last year I started getting overgrowths-blister looking bumps on my stoma. The doctor says its inflamation,but it bothers me. Just hoping someone might have experienced the same thing.I have had Crohn's  for 17 years. Grey Goose

Are the bumps actually around your stoma??? If so, it's actually called "granulated tissue". It's very common(I have some too), and I wouldn't worry about it. It's pretty common among ostomates.
