10 Colon Cancer Symptoms
Symptom #10: Rectal pain
Rectal cancer should also be a concern if you experience any of the previously described symptoms along with pain in your rectum or the urge of a bowel movement without being able to produce one. This can be a sign that a tumor in the rectum is growing and is causing the stool to become trapped.
This can also be accompanied of bright red blood in stools and changes in the shape of your stool. However, there are also benign causes of rectal pain. If you are experiencing this symptom, or many of the symptoms mentioned above, report it to your health care provider to rule out colorectal cancer.
