I Had A Colonoscopy and I have Congestion in the Cecum; Cold Forceps Biopsies were performed. Is this serious?
It can be an infection, a harmless scar or cancer.
There are several causes of hyperthyroidism. Most often, the entire gland is overproducing thyroid hormone. Less commonly, a single nodule is responsible for the excess hormone secretion, called a "hot" nodule
Caecum or Cecum
After performing a thyroid scan uptake, if it is determined that there is a hot nodule it typically means that the nodule is hyperfuncitioning. According to the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists ThyroidAwareness.com website, "The scan tells whether the nodule is hyperfunctioning (a "hot" nodule), or taking up more radioactivity than normal thyroid tissue does; taking up the same amount as normal tissue (a "warm" nodule); or taking up less (a "cold" nodule). Because cancer is rarely found in hot nodules, a scan showing a hot nodule eliminates the need for fine needle biopsy. If a hot nodule causes hyperthyroidism, it can be treated with radioiodine or surgery."

A heterogenous thyroid nodule can't be "fixed", but it can be treated or removed if it is causing a problem. Not all nodules need treatment. There are multiple types and causes of nodules. The treatment (if needed) is based entirely upon the reason for the nodule however, and seeing an endocrinologist who specializes in thyroid care is important to an appropriate diagnosis and treatment of the condition.
Angiectasias in the cecum is a venous lesion that requires cathorization.
