The two most common causes for blood in your stools are haemhorroids and colorectal cancer. First, you must be sure that what you're seeing is actually blood, since some food with strong colouring may mimic blood in stools. If however you haven't recently eaten beetroots and the like, you should check with your doctor. Other symptoms of colorectal cancer may be constipation (same as for haemhorroids) and sudden weight loss. Please consult your medical doctor asap.

Well it could be a hemeroid. If it is persisant in a few days you need to call your doctor and make sure its not a bowel problem. Don,t put it off either because if it is anything else caught early things will be fine But late could mean bigger problems than you really want. Keep an eye on it and like I said see your doctor if it persists.

It could very possibly be hemmroids. If it is a little painful when you have a bowel movement, it probably is. If it continues, I would make an appointment to see the doctor. That is your best bet.

See your doctor and have a fecal occult blood test [FOBT]drawn. That is the screen test for colorectal cancer and it can tell you if there's something to worry about or not. It may not be serious at all, but don't take any chances.

Go see your doctor. NOW! It may be nothing serious. But if it is, your chances of recovery are greater if you get to it immediately. Don't stress over what it may be or get worried about it. Act upon it, and either get it out of your system or resolve it.
Take care of yourself, I'll cross my fingers for you!

Is it frank (bright red) or dark? Bright red could just be hemorrhoids, but if is occult (Dark) than this could mean a GI bleed. Either way, you probably need to see a doctor.

I've had this very same problem myself, so I know where you're coming from. What you need to do is allow yourself to go more often, and DON'T push too hard when you do go.

If you are pushing to hard or maybe you might need to get checked out!
