What Causes Passing Of Thin Stools And Bleeding Due To Hemorrhoids?
Ihave always had narrow stool and bleeding hemroids which makes it difficult to access my symtoms. I also suffer from diverticulities from time to time and am gluten intollerant. Therefore my symtoms are confusing. my last colonoscopy was 5 years ago. Should I have another? Thanks

Hi,
You should have a repeat colonoscopy however you should get proctoscopy and surgical review to see for any need of surgical repair of any per rectal lesion which is causing the bleeding or if any outgrowth is present may need to be biopsied.
Wishing you a speedy recovery. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
