I am a 30 year old male, 170lbs, with no family history of colon cancer.
For the past couple of years, I've been dealing with bowel troubles (loose stool, thin stools, chronic constipation, lower left abdominal cramping before a bowel movement), and recently I've also been having lower left back pain that radiates down my left leg. I have not gained or lost any weight. I haven't seen noticeable blood in my stool.
I have no insurance and am unemployed, so seeing a specialist is out of the question for the time being. Any advice would be appreciated.
