Hello
I appreciate your concern
Blood in stool is a matter of concern
If you can provide me more information like your age and relevant medical history
Have you had similar complaints in past also?
Is it associated with pain and itching around anus
frequency of stool
In my opinion you should immediately consult a gastroenterologist for examination and battery of tests like blood for hemoglobin, CBC, Liver function test and a colonoscopy if need be.
You may need iron supplements or blood transfusion if you loose more blood in stool
Hope this answers your question
wish you good health
