Hi doctor, I have developed a fear of colon cancer and now I keep checking my anus with finger if blood is coming or not. I do this when multiple times in a day. I use tissue paper also sometime. I have never seen blood while passing. Motion but I keep checking anus due to my fear. What should I do? Please help/

Hello lybrate-user, possibly you are worrying unnecessarily, it doesn't mean you get colon cancer if you see blood per rectum. There are many other reasons why you see blood while passing stools or soon after passing stools, that may be related to anorectal disorders like fissures, piles, or fistula. As of now, there is no need to panic about it, you can consult me so that I will clarify your doubts.
