Colon cancer or Colorectal cancer?

I'm 20 years old,5'9 and 208lb
about 2weeks ago i had bright red blood in the stool. when i went for a quick check up and he said it was hemorrhoids. he gave me some ointment for the hemorrhoid and the bleeding stopped after that I had the lose of appetite, constipated, always have gas and wanting to burp and I felt bloated and the feeling something poking me under my belly button.

everyday i worry myself I have colon cancer because my dad had polyps before at the age of 40. what could it be. Im kind of terrified it could possibly colon cancer or any other cancer.

We have just had a health scare, my wife was passing blood in the toilet so we straight to the doc who she could feel a mass in her abdomen. Naturally we freaked and had her dead and buried on the spot. She had to have a colonoscopy (flexible scope with a camera up the bottom) turns out she had diverticulitis, a bacterial inflamation of the bowel which is treated with antibiotics. WHEW. The prep for the procedure sucks as you can imagine. If there is a family history of bowel problems go forth to the doctor even if its just for peace of mind
