Actually, It's been a while ago that I've seen blood with my excrement. It's not like every time, but I do have it some times. Also it's been a week ago that I have some coughing. From my back ground health condition, I can say I was on a medication for 9 months. It was for latest tuberculosis, and after finishing my medication, I called my doctor, and he said you don't need to do any other test. Would anyone tell me if i am in danger or not?

It could be hemorrhoids even if you cant feel them on the outside they can be internal and cause small amounts of bleeding when you have a bowel movement but if it worries you have it checked out. As for the TB if you have gone through the treatment you should be fine. Just remember that from now on you will need to have an xray not a skin test because you will always test positive with a skin test if you have ever had TB

Small quantities of bright red blood indicate haemaroid or fissure - you need more fibre in your diet and to drink more fluids.
Large amounts, dark or black blood indicate problems in the colon - get it checked promptly!
