Hello,
With the question "Is colostomy bleeding dangerous?", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Blood-producing colostomy is an unusual symptom: due to inflammation, bacterial infection. .. Pus and large lumps around the anus could be an abscess infection. Patients should see a doctor immediately to determine their specific condition, get detailed advice and have the most appropriate treatment.
