What Causes Feeling Of Lump With Mucus Discharge In Rectum?
Per-rectal, proctoscopy and colonoscopy
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history which is self explanatory.
Since you have felt a lump inside there is definitely a chance of a lump being there and since you are not accustomed to feeling this regularly it may be difficult for you to differentiate between the following things:
- This can be an impacted fecolith.
- Can be a polyp.
- At your age of 23 cancer is not at all expected so please do not worry.
- There can be a proctitis with edema.
I would advise you the following:
Get an opinion of a surgeon and have preliminary per-rectal and proctoscopy examination to be followed by colonoscopy after preparation.
Test of stool and blood
Please do not panic as anyway you are going for a check up and I am sure this is a small and solvable problem.
Please give feedback of all the tests and prescriptions so that we can discuss further.
