Test to rule out complications

2024-02-09 14:22:31
Hi I noticed blood in my stool . Also , my stools are dark and bright coloured at the same time . My sigmoidoscopy said Grade 1 internal hemmorrhoid. Do I need to get colonoscopy or any other test done to completely rule out any other complications ? I am a fearful guy and don't want to live in fear of cancer, colitis , crohn's etc.

Go ahead for colonoscopy that will rule out 98%. Do ct abdomen and colonoscopy plus biopsy it will further increase sensitivity.
