if you see bleeding on stool, its highly unlikely its cancer. Don't fear the worst.

I have noticed bright red blood on the toilet paper from time to time since at least the year 2011. It is now 2024, and I still notice it from time to time. My blood tests all show normal function. I notice it mostly after hard, very large stools difficult to push out. My stools can be very massive and very wide. I also eat massive amounts of fiber since I am mostly vegan, no meat, no dairy, but occasionally have scrambled eggs for breakfast. Going to drop the eggs, start taking probiotics and drink more water since I was told by my doctor that I am chronically dehydrated.

[JakeBayCity]

What does “a deterioration in constipation” mean?

[antcox]

I have little red dots on my stool I don’t know if it’s blood can anyone help me how would I know it’s blood

[kimberlycombs]

Occasionally if I’m very constipated this small red ball almost, with like white stuff inside came out and I’m freaking out

[danielvanderplow]

I had only like a drop of blood in mine. Is this normal or bad. It was only a drop and there was nothing else but a drop.

[juneanderson]

I had a blood clot after bowel movement it looked like white brain inside no blood in water just clot do u have any idea what it could b I also took a picture

I have constant blood in stools, constipation I'm on medicaid and it takes a month to make an appointment I'm also on blood thinners so maybe it is just that. My sister had to get surgery too because she had colon cancer. They found it in time with her. should I be scared?

I am having hard stool from last 3 days which is causing pain in doing poo and today i was having many drops of blood and also hard stool it is paining
Help!!😫😫

[johnclinton]

I started vomiting months ago blood in the vomit started to show, now im having dull pains and blood with my stool and feeling tired all the time

[yum]

Well I'm only like 15 and my stools haven't been bloody today but last night on the toilet paper at least there was bright red blood now the previous day I planked for 3 minutes and I'm super out of shape so that caused a lot of pain and a few days ago I ate a lot of penuts with the shell whole so i don't know if I should be concerned so if someone perfesional could tell me it would help because my parents won't take me to a doctor unless it bleeds again

I had colonoscopy last year but now 2 weeks ago istarted having blood in my stool but i was straining with lots of loose stool, can that be the cause or i need to see the doctor with insurance. I only had 2 polyps removed last year.

[karlhans]

I was feeling fine but all of a sudden at night started to feel pain in the left side of my intestines, a few days later theres some blood in my stool. What could it be?

[ismanyontosh]

But for me it was on the first poop I made

[nishajmonza]

feels irritation at botom, and when it is too much it seems like blood mixed in stool and after that one drop. it may due to what?

[spectralpencil]

After I pooped a spit of blood followed, but it wasnt really painful nor I was feeling some pain in my stomach or wherever. Is this something I should be concerned about

[Deanhughes]

Wow. I just bled lots today. Weight loss. So is this how I go? Typical.

[terrelzuge]

My stool was black and blood was leaking out am I going to be alright?
