What Causes Belching And Stomach Discomfort Post Polyp Removal?
detailed below.
Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
I read carefully your query.
It is expected that after polyp removal you can have some symptoms of abdominal discomfort with bloating ,belching ,and bleeding.
Bleeding can be expected for the first 3-4 days of surgery and it can make the stools look dark or black.
If the symptoms of gastrointestinal bleeding like black tarry stools, or red blood in stool continue in the following days ,you need to contact the doctor that performed the procedure and get examined.In this case ,another endoscopy to stop the bleeding might be necessary.
Bleeding is a common complication of removing large polyps ,so try not to worry.If the bleeding continues ,consult your doctor,otherwise you don't need to worry.It might take up to 2 weeks to recover completely.
Hope it helps.
Let me know if you have any question.
Kind regards,
Dr.Rovena Murati
