This is not uncommon specially in people with diverticulosis. The more episodes of diverticulitis the more the sigmoid becomes damaged and thickened due to infection. Doctors usually shrug this off unless you have symptoms of bleeding or pain. Then they will do a colonoscopy to rule out cancerous polyps.
