Question: Blood in stool
Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Blood in the stool could be due to Haemorrhoids (Piles) commonly. If it is associated with pain, it could be due to Fissure in ano. These both conditions can be differentiated by clinical examination by a Surgeon.

Treatment depends on the cause of bleeding per rectum.
Please consult a General Surgeon, get examined clinically and proceed accordingly .
