Is it Bowel cancer?

I am a 21 year old female.The past year I had an accident which led to me having my leg broken , I developed something called "compartment syndrome". I had an emergency operation to stop the syndrome and then two additional surgeries .I stayed in the hospital for 16 days and was taking lots of antibiotics and meds. The first day of the accident , like the very first , I remember I couldn't have a bowel movement . While in the hospital , I would strain and have a bowel movement once every three days .I asked if that was normal and they said it was. After leaving the hospital , I started having more frequent bowel movements , but almost 1month after my departure from the hospital , I got a staph infection that spread to my leg . (More antibiotics ) .Then , after two months I got mastoiditis (more antibiotics ).The docs told me my immune system was compromised because I was immobile because of my accident for 7 months up till that time .I'd like to add that I had to have screws on my ankle.

Additionally , a year before my accident I was diagnosed with esophagitis of 3rd degree and have been receiving laprazol ever since.

My bowel movements are not painful.I have been going more regularly compared to the first months after the accident ( I go every day ).I have no pain , no bleeding , no detectable mass , no itching .My poo goes from separate lumps to more liquid smushy kind ( in the Bristol stool chart I've had everything from 1 to 6 .Diarrhoea occurred only twice in the whole year . ).I have noticed that they are getting better but I'm still concerned. Also I have noticed that every time before my period I get more constipated ( I have no pelvic pain , no irregular periods or spotting ). I have become a huge hypochondriac and have visited at least 3 gastrenterologists.
