What Causes Diarrhea,abdominal Discomfort And Anal Leakage Post Colonoscopy?
I had a colonoscopy in May and my bowels have not been the same since. I have quick onset diarrhea, often one after another but not always a huge amount. slight but noticeable abdominal discomfort with intestinal gas release I never had before. It almost feels like anal leakage of some type when I can barely make it to the bathroom with strange (lower) cramping.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, frequency of passing stool 3 to 4 time in day may be normal one, hydration need to be taken care, if this is abdominal pain and forming too much flatus then it could be protozoa infection and it can be given try with "Tab Metronidazole" 400 mg" twice in day for five days, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
