I started bleeding about a week after the procedure. its only about a couple of teaspoons when I go to the bathroom but this happens about six or seven times a day. even if I don't have a bowel movement but feel like I have to I still bleed should I be concerned
Hi there, Colonoscopy is considered a very safe procedure though very rarely after polup removals there can be heavy bleeding, otherwise most of the bleeding spontaneously resolves in a week or so. If you are having bleeding about six or seven times as you mentioning, kindly report to your doctor. Regards
