Mild Pain In Lower Right Abdomen, Light Spotting. Colon Or Ovarian Cancer?

Hi, is anyone available? I just had a quick question. I ve been having very mild, a 1 on a scale on 1-10 pain in my right lower side with no other symptoms for about two weeks. The pain is on and off, not occurring every day. Today, there was a light bit of spotting on the toilet paper after using the bathroom once. I m 20 years old and wondering how likely this would be for colon cancer or ovarian?

Hi, 2 week pain and bleeding spot may be either infective cause or polyp like thing in your intestine. If you do not have any family history of intestine tumour, the chances of cancer in your case are very rare. Please give a trial of antibiotics for 5 days and see. If the problem persists, then colonoscopy is needed. Take care.
