Hello doctor! My mother is 69 years old with colon cancer and has had surgery to remove the tumor and create an stoma for 3 months. For two days now, my mother has been sad to defecate through the anus naturally and come out with bloody mucus and a feeling of abdominal pain. Every time you urinate, there are also a few drops of mucus that follow the natural anal passage. Please ask the doctor, does the phenomenon that after 3 months of creating an artificial anus, there is mucus and blood in the natural anus, does it affect anything and does it need to be hospitalized for treatment? I would like to thank the doctor.

Answer
Hello! Colon cancer had surgery to remove the tumor and made an ostomy for 3 months, but the location, stage of the tumor as well as the surgical method are unknown. Does the patient have any supportive care after surgery? Symptoms of natural anal bleeding mucus can be caused by many reasons: inflammation, tumor recurrence...
Best in case, after 3 months of creating an stoma, there is mucus and blood in the stool. If you have a natural anal canal, you should take your mother to a specialized medical facility or a hospital under the Vinmec Health System for further examination and appropriate indications by the doctor.
Looking forward to meeting you and your family at Vinmec for specific discussions. May your mother always be healthy.
