What Causes Leaky Anus After A Colonoscopy?

before my colonoscopy, i had a leaky anus, sometimes yellow, sometimes clear (but no smell). i had my colonoscopy, no polyps, no tissues removed. still, to this day, i have a leaky anus. i use 1/2 paper towel, just between my buttcheeks. i use the medicated wipes, around my anus, not all the time. my diet is mostly fruit during the day, at evening, i eat light meats, but always eat cheese. any problems? do i need to change my diet? thanks.

Hello

As you explain the situation it depends on the cause of which you have done the colonoscopy. If it troubles you this situation better to go back to the doctor who performed colonoscopy and ask him or her if it is a problem or not.
