Health anxiety
Recently i had done an endoscopy and doctor found one small duodenal polyp. He said its nothing to worry and treatment is not needed. But i m scared that it will become cancer... i previously had this kind of health anxiety. But now i feel like my stomach is cramping sometimes and have an urge to go to take a dump. I feel like my anxiety is causing it more than a disease. Can it be because of anxiety?
P.s i feel normal when i m not thinking about my health.

Dear friend,
Cramps are due to anxiety only. As you had given, if you do not think about it, you are normal. So don't think about it.

Polyps in intestine are common and are often benign needing no treatment. It was an incidental finding during an endoscopy. I wonder why did u get endoscopy done? Was it due to some specific indication or just to satisfy your health anxiety. If this anxiety is troubling you then you might need to consult a psychiatrist as it is a psychiatric disorder.
