Could Stage Two Hemorrhoids Be Causing The Thin Stool Again?
Concerned about "squashed" thinner stool I had a colonoscopy 6 years ago (completely clean) and a flexible sig (4 years ago for this same problem) I was told I have stage two hemroids. Could this be causing the thin stool again or could a polyp grow in such a short time ?
