Colon Cancer |
I`m not sure what I have!11/26/2007 |
I am a 35 year old male and for the last couple of weeks i`ve been having some clear blood with my stool. I`ve been to 2 GP`s and both recommends a scope as soon as possible. I`m actually scared to find out the truth. Some days there will be nothing and other days my insides want to drop out. Please help.
In a man your age, it’s most likely going to turn out to be a small tear near the anus or hemorrhoids. However, you should not ignore it just in case it turns out to be something more significant like a polyp. I agree that for piece of mind and to exclude other sources of bleeding, you have a colonoscopy.
