My twin brother (mid-30s) has had a couple colonoscopies due to sudden bleeding during bowel movements, but they turned up negative for any findings thankfully. I had a relative (unknown relation) pass away in their 30s from colorectal cancer a while back, and my own father (70s) had a few polyps discovered in his colon a few years ago which were removed.
I'm currently fine in that area as far as bleeding goes, although I do want to have a colonoscopy soon to be safe since it's never too late.
Would there be any other symptoms aside from just bleeding which could point to colorectal cancer or polyps?
