Hello doctor! I had rectal polyp removed because there was a lot of fresh blood in the rectum and there was a polyp size 0.8cm. During the endoscopy, the doctor used up to 3 clamps to stop bleeding. Doctor, I want to ask if the clip used in rectal polypectomy is to stop the bleeding of the cut or another place in the rectum? Ask your doctor for advice. I would like to thank the doctor.
