I bleed from my anus and im worry about it i want to know what kind of doctor i have to see ?

Answer 1

see your normal doctor

Answer 2

You are right to be worried!

Your family doctor may be able to tell you if you have hemorrhoids, which is the most likely and easiest treated cause for anal bleeding.

If this is not the cause, then you will need to see a gastro-entrologist. Bleeding can be caused by ulcerative colitis, cancer, diverticulitis, and many other causes. Only a complete examination of the lower bowel can determine what the cause is.

Bleeding higher in the digestive tract causes black, tarry, or "coffee ground" stools, so if the blood is red, the cause will be someplace in the colon or rectum. Don't delay seeing a doctor, as some of the possibilities are very serious and your survival may depend on a prompt diagnosis.

Good luck. Here's hoping all you need is Preparation H!

Answer 3

Go see your primary doctor... this could be nothing serious or quiet serious.. Bright red blood from the anus is blood that hasnt been digested by your GI tract.. which is different from lets say black tarry stools etc.. which could be Bleeding Ulcers or some kinda internal hemmorrage... The amount of blood is quiet significant.. could be any thing from irriation to your anus or colon.. from diet.. diarrhea.. hemmoroids.. etc... or something serious such as perforation to the tract... tumors... polyps.. this is hard to diagnois on here esp without more symptoms.. go see your PCP...or a general practice doctor of some kind...good luck..

Answer 4

I would see your primary physician first, if he thinks a different doctor is needed he will refer you. Most insurance companies actually request that you do that otherwise you may need to foot the bill. Call your ins. company first to make sure, but get this taken care of immediatley. Bleeding from the anus is serious

Answer 5

start with your normal famly doctor or general practitioner, they will then refer you to a specialist if you need it.
