Have you ever known of a case where a person is admitted into the hospital because of a blockage in their lower intestines? They are given a colonoscopy because of their age and supposedly to look for the blockage. As result of the colonoscopy, they have an indent in the middle of the back, change in the pelvic bone appearance and collapsed right hip, which results in one hip large than the other. Are there cases when damaged have been done to a person?s nerves or muscles as the result of a colonoscopy?
