Dr. Cheng Yicheng
Treatment for multiple colonic polyps may include medications or surgery. 1. Medications: If a patient's symptoms of multiple colonic polyps are mild, with only occasional dull pain, medications such as ibuprofen sustained-release capsules or enteric-coated aspirin tablets may be used under a doctor's guidance. 2. Surgery: If multiple colonic polyps significantly affect normal bowel movements, cause markedly increased abdominal pain, or lead to complications such as ulceration of the polyps, prompt surgical treatment at a hospital is necessary, including procedures such as colonoscopic surgery or laparoscopic surgery.
