You gave problem of blood in stool that may be because of intestinal infection like ulcerative colitis.
In peptic ulcer there is blood In stool is present.
Diverticulitis may ruled out.
Anal fissure or hemorroids may cause this type of symptoms.
Stool examination test is helpful for further diagnosis.
Consent a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis..

I hope my guidance is helpful to you.
