Thin stool
Since last year may 2022 i am having digestive problem
I have to go relieve myself after eating.
Sense of incomplete stool evacuation.
I went to my surgeon who did colonoscopy in July 2022 which was absolutely healthy and normal and asked me not to do anything now just adopt healthy lifestyle,never asked me to do colonoscopy again or do further any test
But last year in October 2022 one of my friend said think stool is sign of colon cancer and I did not knew it before and noticed i have thin stool aswell since then I am tensed and in stress
I am not sure but i am having this type of stool since many year also i have constipation.its just my friend brought this to my notice and remember colonoscopy was normal and healthy
Should I ask my surgeon to do colonoscopy again and check as it's been just 6 months ?
Plz advice i am in very much stress
