Mass/Tissue In Rectum Area. Could Colonoscopy Have Enlarged Prostate?
Could my colonoscopy have enlarged my prostate?? About a week after the procedure, I noticed more "mass" , or tissue in rectum area,... I noticed this because of constipation which occasionally makes me have to use a digit to help things a little. Everything was ok until about a week after the procedure,... Then I noticed this "mass/tissue" against my finger which was never noticed or felt prior to that day. Thanks for your time.

Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
The mass you feel could be hemorrhoids or rectal prolapse.
Since you have mentioned you are also constipated, it is more likely to be hemorrhoids.
Take high fiber diet and fiber supplements.
Colonoscopy has got nothing to do with prostate.
