The 5th time about 1 month ago, gastritis congestive pyloric aneurysm, mild gastric bulge; Colon: 2mm diameter rectal polyp, internal hemorrhoids. For the past five years, I have taken many medicines but my condition has not improved. I usually wake up in the morning and have a bowel movement with thick stools. After going 2-3 times a day, I still feel sick and heavy in the anal area. May I ask, what are the symptoms of frequent bowel movements in the morning, with a thick and heavy feeling in the anal area? Do polyps 2mm in diameter need to be removed and treated?
