What Causes A Burning Sensation In The Rectal Opening After A Colonoscopy?
at age 74 I had a colonoscopy and they told me I had diverticulosis. I am now 77 and they want to do it again. When can I stop doing this miserable test? Lately I seem to be sensitive to tomatoes and salsa with burning sensation at the exit of my bowel.
Possible cause may be a fissure, around the anus or inflammation of rectum from various reasons. Along with that sensitive foodstuffs, are to be avoided.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
