Go back: To see the doctor again. What was the doctor's finding or diagnosis? Let them know the cream is not working for you. Have you had a colonoscopy before?

Ask to be: Referred to a colon and rectal surgeon or see one on your own if your insurance does not require a referral. Do not accept any amount of bleeding as normal.
