Banding one week ago, bloody mucus?

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi,

I had two hemorrhoids banded last week. The same day I had a lot of discomfort, feeling like I had to poop like I've never had before, but that mostly went away by the next day. The bleeding with bowel movements, which had mostly gone away, did come back and I've gotten constipated the last few days, which is nothing new for me. However, when I went today I noticed mucus on my stool with some blood mixed in. This has me extremely worried. Could this still be from the hemorrhoid banding? I don't know if they've fallen off by now, it's been six day since.

      It wasn't an operation, the doctor just shoved a camera up my bum and banded the two hemorrhoids she saw.
