I will never go to the doctor after seeing this. If I have cancer, I don't want to know.

Mine started 3 months ago, the blood came out only a little, I'm kinda scared to go to hospital due to covid19, i ask my relatives who are nurse what will i do, it stopped bleeding after 3 days, but now it started again, this time it's worst, too much blood coming out, I don't know what to do, I'm also scared to go to the hospital still because of covid is increasing and I don't have transportation, our hospital is kinda far, and i had sorethroat but it's not from covid, that's why i don't want to go, what should i do??? I'm scared, i need advice pls help

I've been bleeding alot in the past week everytime I eat I have to go to the bathroom and then I just poo out loads of dark blood in my stool.

I had two colonoscopies which were scary in itself. One at 23 years of age and the other one at 27. I’m 29 now. I had no polyps and build ups when the doctors scoped me. Just a fissure that was found that would not heal properly cause I’m always having to go to the bathroom. I still bleed from time to time and when I do bleed, I feel like I have to force my stool out. I eat relatively well. No fast food but it still happens. So I’m always concern why it comes out in clots. Anybody else get this ?

I'm bleeding after stools and I thought I'm on my periods it hurts when im passing stool. My stool seems hard too. I thought it's periods and I'm wearing a pad like fool. Then I took a wet tissue I wiped then thought it's really periods cause I don't bleed this way. Anyways I even missed my periods it's been a month now. I don't know what this means. Im just freaking earlier when I showed it to doctor for the pain I had he gave me some ointments and said I'm having something called "fissure". I'm just tired as a woman cause of this bleeding in anus and then the gastric problem and now I get a cramp often in my left lower abdomen. I'm also suffering often times with vaginal infection like UTI and bla bla
