Suggest Options To Diagnose Colon Other Than Colonoscopy?
Is there any other way to check your colon without a colonoscopy? My son is totally refusing to have one. He has been bleeding for several months now and I cannot get him to do it. He has a traumstic brain injury and I could probably never get the drink down him to clean him out. . \

Hello,
Capsule endoscopy is another method to diagnose colon disease. Also to rule out inflammatory bowel disease ERS in blood and a calprotectin stool test can be done.
I hope this answers your query.
I remain at your disposal for further medical assistance.
