Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,

Red stools could be as a result of infection or parasite infestations.

I think you should undergo various tests like routine blood count,ESR, stool for routine micro with ova/cyst.

You can take albendazole treatment right now but you will need to see some local physician or GP for the prescription since it is a prescription drug. Syrup cremaffin plus )stool softeners) would be helpful for hard stool.

So, consult your GP with all the reports I have mentioned and take advice accordingly.

Meanwhile take bland diet for 5 to 7 days without much sugar.

Regards,
I find this answer helpful
