Bleeding Bright Red From The Rectum. Took Chemo For Prostrate Cancer, Diabetic. Any Solution ?
got prostate cancer in 2005, took chemo for once a week for about 9 months. i'm bleeding bright red from the rectom. first time was towards the end on my chemo treatments and it has only happened about 4 times in the last six years since and never and pain but sometimes it it when i have constipation. i'm 57 years old now. also have diabetes since 1995.
Most common causes are hemorrhoid, fisures and polyps and this benign and non-serious,but considering your previous chemo there could be colitis caused by this. Also, considering your age and gender there is a risk of colon cancer so some endoscopic procedures should be performed. Wish you good health. Regards
