A member asked:
Is painful to remove a rectum little polyp? in which way can be removed? after removing it , do i have to follow a specific food diet? thank you!

Polyps: are removed during colonoscopy while you are sedated, using cautery. There are no nerve endings in the base of the polyp, so it shouldn't be painful. After removing it, you should be able to eat a healthy diet.
