Common occurance: The sensory fiber in the rectum sometimes senses the internal hemorrhoid if is large enough as if the stool is there and need to be evacuated. It is not an unusual occurance.

Hi Doctors. I've had situations where I don't have a bm for 3 to sometimes 4/5 days. I had a colonoscopy, and Thank God I had only internal hemorrhoids and diverticulosis. If difficulty producing a bm comes up again, what could this be? What do I do?

A member asked:

Hi I Have had intermittent constipation. Colonoscopy 7 days ago.Thank God only diverticulosis/internal hemorrhoids. I did have bms after colonoscopy..watery. Seemed ok, but now, no bm after 4 days. I'm Worried intermittent constipation is coming back?

A member asked:

Embarassing question, but I may have mild fecal incontinence, possibly due to internal hemorrhoid. Today, I wiped (not after a BM) to check for leakage, and saw a dark flake on the wipe. Brown I think. Could it have been solid fecal matter coming out?

A member asked:

Leaking from anus after bm. Internal hemorrhoids. Using witch hazel wipes -wiped too raw with tp. What now? Clears up if i take an antibiotic - cipro (ciprofloxacin).

A member asked:

Ive read colorectal cancer is on the rise in young adults and Ive have some blood on stool and paper after bm. Had no pain if I take fiber I have no problems should I be worried about cancer? My dr just looked and said probably internal hemorrhoids?

Good morning doctors. I had a colonoscopy, and the Dr saw (only) diverticulosis and internal hemorrhoids. I STILL have not had a bm in around 4 days. What or what ELSE could be wrong with me? Isn't this bad if Dr says colonoscopy was otherwise normal?
