Are Multiple Sigmoid Polyp Shown In Colon Test A Cause For Concern?
I turned 60 in Jan. Had a Colonoscopy done today, after the colon test showed blood in the stools. The report says 2-3cms 3 sigmoid polyp and have an appointment with the doctor next week. Can you pl let me know what this means and if i have to get surgery done? Thanks a lot. Edmund

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, sigmoid polyp is actually pathological condition of colon and the lesion is usually filled with blood, this is actually surgical condition and needs surgery but some times this comes around with medical treatment, but this depends how the polyps are ? this is not the condition that one should be worry about this, take care.
