A colorectal polyp is a polyp (fleshy growth) occurring on the lining of the colon or rectum.[1] Untreated colorectal polyps can develop into colorectal cancer.[2]
Colorectal polyps are often classified by their behaviour (i.e. benign vs. malignant) or cause (e.g. as a consequence of inflammatory bowel disease). They may be benign (e.g. hyperplastic polyp), pre-malignant (e.g. tubular adenoma) or malignant (e.g. colorectal adenocarcinoma).
Colorectal polyps are not usually associated with symptoms.[2] When they occur, symptoms include bloody stools; changes in frequency or consistency of stools, such as a week or more of constipation or diarrhoea;[3] and fatigue arising from blood loss.[2] Anemia arising from iron deficiency can also present due to chronic blood loss, even in the absence of bloody stools.[3][4] Another symptom might be increased mucous production especially those involving villous adenomas.[4] Copious production of mucous causes loss of potassium that can occasionally result in symptomatic hypokalemia.[4] Occasionally, if a polyp is big enough to cause a bowel obstruction, there may be nausea, vomiting and severe constipation.[3]

Interesting, the science for meat is inaccurate and meta analysis used is based on food surveys where confounders are matched out.. there is no real science based evidence to eliminate or decrease meat intake, by the time meat hits the intestine, it is chym

At age 46 I was diagnosed with 56 tumors with the largest as big as a grapefruit. No symptoms, was caught on a routine exam by a Wonderful doctor. Went thru 7 months of chemo after 4 feet of colon removal called a resection. I was given 3-5 years but still going well after 8 yrs. every year they take out 13-28 more polyps. Just a maintenance, no big deal guys. Good luck!! Feel free to ask questions:)

Very Good!…
I was diagnosed on May 1st with a stage 3 Adenocarcinoma. Now I am waiting for date for keyhole surgery. I go for pre op assessment on June 3rd and as we still have Covid I have to go into complete isolation for 2 weeks before op, which will be hard enough without thinking about what is going to happen. To be honest I am shellshocked and try to steer the talk away from it with my family. I have 4 kids married, 11 grandchdren and going on for 20 GT. Grandchildren. So I have a lot of thoughts going around in my head.
This is so depressing
