You should see a gastroenterologist-called a GI doctor. There could be many reasons for your symptoms. You may have inflammatory bowel disease, like Crohn’s Disease or ulcerative colitis. The treatment would depend on the diagnosis. You may need a colonoscopy-a lighted tube with a camera is inserted into the rectum while you are asleep. So, see a GI doctor ASAP! Hope you feel better real soon!
