Hi.
The colonoscopy has its own complications and you already have a hernia and a benign tumor.
The probable causes are intestinal obstruction .
This can be easily diagnosed by a simple test of X-ray of the Abdomen in standing position as it will show fluid-gas shadows.
If you do not get a relief within a few days of conservative treatment like Intravenous fluids , Naso-gastric Ryles tube aspiration, you may need surgery to get a proper diagnosis and treatment
