General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It is not a sign of rectal cancer. We can wait for the biopsy to know the nature of the polyp. The impaired sphincter muscle action will be due to advanced age.

The Sphincter problem is more common among females due to multiple deliveries.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
