Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.
Some of the causes of blood in stool are hemorrhoids, anal fissure, polyps, inflammatory bowel disease and malignancy.
I would advise you to get a sigmoidoscopy test done to know the cause of bleeding.
I hope that answers your question.
Regards,
Dr.R.K
