Small polyp found one year back

2018-09-15 12:58:02
Like one year back I had blood coming out in stool. Using the colonoscopy it was diagnosed that I had a small polyp in my rectum they removed it that time only. The polyp was small and benign in nature so doctor told me there is nothing to worry about. Now 3 months back I got to know that my maternal uncle has colon cancer of last stage. So I want to know since I have a family history of this how frequent should I get tested for polyp. Last time it was done in June 2017.
