Hi
I read carefully all your concerns and I would like to say that you need to me examined with colonoscopy or sygmoidoscopy .
Firstly you should avoid constipation using plenty of water, foods reached in fibers, kiwi, increase physical activity , avoid stress.
If it is not enough you can start to use lactulose.
wishing you fast recovery
