Hi,

Your symptoms may be related with:

- blood after removing polyps (rarely two weeks later)
- internal haemorrhoids (if it has been describing on colonoscopy.

If it is a large amount of blood please go to the ER.

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

Take care
