Bowel issues

Hello everyone,

Just wondering if anyone has any symptoms like I have.In 2020 I was diagnosed with rectal cancer, things seem to be okay apart from a few issues when I have a BM.

I can have a normal BM, then about an hour later I feel damp and uncomfortable and I have to keep checking and wiping, it’s as if I haven’t cleaned myself after my BM, but of course I have. I wondered if this could be something to do with having a few Colonoscopy’s ?

sorry to hear you are feeling like this, cage1.

I am similar, sorry if TMI here , but I have been diagnosed with a small mucosal prolapse from the rectum. I also have the dreaded haemorrhoids.

I am not sure if you have checked your rear end or had it checked? I decided against surgery which was my only option. I find wearing a liner or pad helps.

Thanks for your reply Jackie1612

I am still having check ups for my rectal cancer, so I don’t think anything has been found an issue there. Once again thank you and I will keep what you have said in mind.
