What Causes Pain In Back Along With Blood In Stools?
I have dull kidney pain for the last 2 weeks, mostly on the right side but I can feel it on both sides especially when I bend over. I have been exceptionally tired lately, and have had pain all over my pain. Achy back and joints. Today I started seeing blood in my stool. I have been under a lot of stress lately. I assumed the ashiness was from my job but I have been straining myself more than usual and I assumed the tiredness was from stress. I have been worried about the kidney pain though and now I m worried that the blood in my stool means there s something else going on and it could all be connected. Is there something wrong with me or am I a hypochondriac?

Kidney problems does not cause any affect on stools. Blood in stools means your gut is in problem. You might have, IBS, hemorrhoids or polyps, which needs detailed history and investigations.
