Neuro Endocrine Tumour (rectal colon)
Sir, I have taken my first cycle of Chemotherapy (Carboplatin and Etoposide). First week it was severe constipation. Motion did no go for 2 days. A mild enema was given. Again motion started coming but with full pain. Motion also came 2/3 times a day. Even gas passing was full of pain. I was given gels for fissures. Now I take sitz bath, apply fissures gel, take dulcoplex daily, but still problem persists. Why is it so? How long will it continue? Doctor said it is radiation effect, but it is more than a month after last radiation

Its radiation proctitis.  Usually settles within a month post radiation. Chemo some times may aggravate it. Continue treatment as advised
