Hi,
constipation and blood in stools ,it may be due to straining that it self causs pain abdomen.
But we need to rule out what is the reason for all these symptoms.
According to me it may be a hemorrhoids ,that causing problem.
To confirm you can consider few blood tests like complete blood count,ESR CRP, TSH,and if needed colonoscopy or a simple proctoscopy.
IF ITS HEMORRHOIDS THEN YOU can consider SITZ BATH ,that is take a tub with loop water and add salt into that were you can sit inside atleast 3 times a day ,with this consider high fibre diet like green leafy vegetables and have a banana in the night after your dinner and also syp lactifibre 15 ml in the night daily atleast 2-3 weeks and later if needed.
ANd avoid smoking and spicy food.
If its not hemorrhoids then you need get a colonoscopy that we can decide seeing blood reports.
Hope this information helps you
Thank you

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of stomach pain and blood in stools which seems to be due to food poisoning and acute gastroenteritis. It may be due to hemorrhoids. and could be due t disturbed metabolism of body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to avoid intake of any outside food. You should take high fibre diet like green leafy vegetables and have a banana in the night after your dinner. You should take proper rest. You should take plenty of fluids to re-hydrate. Take diet rich in multivitamins and avoid any oily sharp and fast food. Visit general physician once and get it examined. You should get blood tests done to find out underlying cause of condition and start treatment accordingly. Your symptoms will resolve in 3-5 days.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
