Change in BMs

by pushing50ohno, Oct 27, 2009 07:19PM
I experienced a change in bowel movements almost a year ago.  They were becoming increasingly narrow, and it was getting painful during elimination.  I went to my internist last January and she referred me to a colorectal specialist for a colonoscopy.  He found no polyps, and only mentioned that I needed to eat more roughage as I had irritation around my rectum.  Since that time, I continue to have pain during and after elimination, and now my movements are becoming somewhat looser.  I have passed very few "normal" stools in the last year.  Should I be concerned?
