Well if the blood in the stool is red that means the blood is not digested.. could be anything from hemorrhoids (yes they can bleed LOTS) to a lower gastrointestinal bleed...if is digested the bloody stool will be black and the consistency of tar... that indicates an upper gastrointestinal bleed (ulcers to worse) You should definitely see a doctor.. just in case it is serious

If the bleeding the bright red you probably have hemmorroids. If you havn't noticed them around your external anus, they are likely internal. If the blood is darker tar colored you have bleeding in your intestinal tract, or your stomach. Any blood in your stool needs to be assessed by a doctor. Good luck.

Why not consulting a Doctor. Asking in tghis page like a fool ? Be serious if you want to live. Sometime it may take a serious turn, May be nothing that serious. Dont take any chance. If you want, I can pay the Doctor's bill.

It means you should call your doc right away. Bright red blood could be something as simple as hemmerroids but black tarry stuff could be more serious. (I'm not saying hemmeroids can't be serious) Call your doc!!! Now!

It means you should definitely see a doctor. There can be many reasons including colon cancer. It can be serious.
