What is the reason for bleeding in the stool one month after delivery

If a woman has bleeding in her stool one month after giving birth, it may be rectal cancer, but you cannot judge rectal cancer based solely on bleeding in the stool. You should go to the hospital for examination in time. For example, a fecal occult blood test or a digital rectal examination. Postpartum bleeding in the stool should be taken seriously. Women are already weak after giving birth, and coupled with bleeding in the stool, this will slow down their body's recovery and easily lead to anemia.

Regarding how to diagnose rectal cancer, we must first know that rectal cancer accounts for about 50% of the risk of colorectal cancer. This is the most important basis for confirming that a patient has rectal cancer. For example, the symptoms of early rectal cancer patients are not very prominent, and there will only be blood in the stool, which is very similar to hemorrhoids, and is often ignored by patients.

Some patients will have more frequent bowel movements or loose stools and are mistakenly diagnosed as having diarrhea. Patients in the middle stage will have more frequent bowel movements and mucus or bloody stools, as well as pus and blood in the stools, and abdominal pain or a feeling of heaviness with each bowel movement.

In the late stage, patients will not only experience aggravation of the above symptoms, but also anemia, anal pain, abdominal distension, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms. At the same time, symptoms such as ascites, frequent urination, and painful urination may also occur.

Rectal examination and rectal endoscopy are well-known for the discovery of hard and irregular masses in the rectum.

Eating beneficial foods to prevent cancer may reduce the incidence of cancer itching by 30%-60%. It is essential and important to include alkaline foods such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains in your daily diet.

The above briefly introduces the general diagnosis methods of rectal cancer. If there is bleeding in the stool after delivery, a preliminary diagnosis of rectal cancer can be made based on the above introduction. Of course, if you want a more accurate diagnosis, you need to go to the hospital, such as testing for tumor markers, or routine stool and occult blood tests. In addition, it is necessary to perform a CT or MRI examination of the pelvis.
