Mucus and Watery Blood After Colonoscopy Biopsy?

This topic is about someone who recently had a colonoscopy on a section of their bowel that is no longer in use, during which a biopsy was taken. After the procedure, they noticed passing mucus with a small amount of watery blood and are curious if this is a normal occurrence. They are not experiencing any pain, abdominal hardening, or fever.

Here are some helpful insights and advice shared by others:

1. It is common to pass mucus mixed with light, watery blood for a few days after a colonoscopy biopsy, especially from scarred or unused bowel or rectal tissue. This is usually not a cause for concern.

2. The bleeding often comes from the biopsy site or existing scar tissue and typically subsides within several days, as long as there is no pain, fever, or abdominal rigidity.

3. It is important to monitor the amount and nature of the bleeding. If the bleeding increases, or if pain or fever develops, it is advisable to seek medical attention. Additionally, if you are worried, consulting a healthcare professional can provide peace of mind.
