Frequent Urination, Anal Leakage. Family History Of Colon Cancer. Recommendations?

My husband has been going to the bathroom after every meal...about 30 minutes, to one hour after eating. This has been happening for the past two weeks or so, and before that, he complained of anal leakage. I'm worried it could be something like Colon cancer, as that his maternal grandfather has had it twice in ten years. He has made an appointment to see his physician, but we are both pretty worried.

Greetings of the day

Sometimes it's quite common to have bowel disturbance. Do not worry, your physician will do a digital rectal examination to rule out any low lying pathology.
Take care
