Re: Would a transverse tumor/polyp/cancer cause fresh bleeding?

Transverse Tumors

Hi,

I've posted here before for myself but need help for my aunt.

In 2014, I noticed small amounts of fresh red blood coating stool. I went to the doctor. They couldn't find hemorrhoids or a fissure so they did a sigmoidoscopy. It was normal.
