What Causes Severe Abdominal Pain?
I am 29 years old and having severe abdominal pain so they sent me to have a colonoscopy done yesterday it all came back good but yesterday I had a couple of bowl movements and it was pure blood and then this morning I wake up and my face is swollen also I have chills and I feel so bad is this normal after a colonoscopy?

Hi,
Blood you experienced is indicative for hemorrhoids or any possible anal fissure, especially when your stool was hard.
Having a swollen face is not related to colonoscopy. Depending on your actual age, it might be due to:
- kidney problems (e.g. infection)
- changes in blood pressure
- medications you might be currently taking.
I advise to get an emergency appointment with your physician for further evaluations and adequate treatment.
All the best!
