What Is The Cause Of Poop Stains On My Underwear After The Removal Of Precancerous Polyps In Colon?
In the last 2 years I often have poop stained underwear even after cleaning with soap and water. In 2012 I had my first ever routine colonoscopy and doc said I had hemoroids and also a benign polyp close to my anus that he said I may need to remove some day. He also removed a few precancerous polyps deeper in my colon. Stains in underwear seem to be getting progressively worse. Any suggestions?

Hi
As you have already had removal of precancerous polyps from your rectum, you need to go undergo follow up check ups by colonoscopy. The staining of the underwear can be either due to bleeding or stools. You need to schedule your follow up colonoscopy to rule out either bleeding or stool staining
Wish you a speedy recovery
