What are the symptoms of multiple sigmoid colon polyps?

Sigmoid colon polyps are a common disease in daily life. About 1/3 of patients have multiple polyps. Therefore, after the polyps are removed, they may grow again in other parts of the body, which is very harmful to human health. Therefore, for a disease like sigmoid colon polyps, we must fully understand its symptoms and ensure early detection and early treatment.

1. Symptoms of multiple sigmoid colon polyps

There are no obvious clinical symptoms in the early stage of multiple sigmoid colon polyps. As the disease progresses, patients will have clinical symptoms such as dark red blood in the stool, painful stool, and prolapse of polyps. In more serious cases, other clinical symptoms may include drowsiness, weakness, painful defecation, and difficulty in defecation. Some patients have milder symptoms after the onset of the disease, while others have more severe symptoms. Regardless of whether the symptoms are obvious or not, it is best for patients to go to a professional hospital for treatment and examination. After the examination, if the disease is confirmed, effective treatment methods should be adopted as soon as possible.

Treatment of sigmoid colon polyps

After understanding the symptoms of sigmoid colon polyps, patients should also understand the treatment methods of sigmoid colon polyps. The most common treatment for sigmoid colon polyps is surgery. In the early stages, doctors will develop a surgical plan for the patient based on the patient's examination results and specific circumstances. The commonly used surgical method is to remove the lesions and prevent the invasion of chronic intestinal inflammation. If surgical treatment is not performed in the early stage, the patient may be attacked by dysentery or ulcerative colitis, and develop clinical symptoms of abdominal pain and diarrhea. After invasion, the colon becomes malignant and the colon polyps can be tubular adenomas, villous adenomas, or papilloma.

The incidence of colon malignancy is extremely high, and the incidence of malignancy in people with colon polyps is 5 times that of people without colon polyps. If the patient has familial multiple colon polyps, the incidence rate is higher. Patients should pay attention to their daily diet, avoid eating raw or hard food, avoid eating food that is difficult to digest, and eat more soups or liquid foods.
