My mother had colorectal cancer her surgery was 6 months ago, surgery went extremely well and recovered she has had a temporaly a colostomy, and she has faced 7 rounds of chemo. Now she is admitted in the hospital, and has seen blood clot in her colostomy bag. What can be the problem?
Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for the query. This isn't indicating anything serious, and it may be just temporary colon bleeding due to angiodysplasie or polyps. He should do red blood count and if this is normal he should not worry. If there is hemoglobin fall then he must do colonoscopy to verify is there some more serious colon lesion such as tumor recurrence or focus caused by behemoth.  Wish you good health. Regards
