I've seen my primary twice now about it. They did a digital rectal exam once and an anoscope and said I have bleeding hemorrhoids. I noticed a lot of blood in the toilet today (like filled the bowl bright red) and I'm scared. My doc isn't worried?
I've been having red spots in stool. Doc. used anoscope, no anal fissures etc found. Could it still be caused by passing hard stool? No pain, FOBT ok.
I have rectal discomfort & small spots of blood on tp after a bowel movement 2-3x / mo. PCP said I have a hemorrhoidal skin tag. I saw a gastroenterologist who did DRE & anoscope. Said I have internal hemorrhoid and fissure. Could it be cancer?
When is a anoscopic procedure warranted when visiting a gastroenterologist?
