I just had to have colon surgery for a benign mass in the colon called a lipoma. It seems I had read either on Thunders or Matter of Size a thread by someone who thought extreme clamping brought on this growth by cutting off the blood supply through clamping. I have had great success by clamping, and don’t want to stop, but I definitely do not want to go through something like this again. My question is whether cutting off the blood supply for extended periods could cause an irritation in the colon and cause a growth like this. Does anyone else remember reading a thread of someone with the same concern? If there are any medical people on this site, I would deeply appreciate an answer. Thanks!
