A member asked:
I had a colonoscopy with a 8mm polyp removal from my sigmoid colon through a lift and hot snare removal. this was 3 days ago. i am due to fly today (2hr flight). i've had some pink/red mucus with my bowel movements since but nothing excessive. safe?

It is expected to have a small amount of bleeding after a polyp removal but this should not worsen with flying. As long as the bleeding remains minimal and it is improving, the 2 hour flight will be fine. If the bleeding worsens at any time, let your GI doctor know. Good luck to you!
