How To Treat Bloody Stool?
I had what looked like blood in my stool, it wasn t bright red it was like a regular red color, maybe maroon. It was just a couple of spots that were liquidy. I ate ketchup with fries the night before, after 10p.m. so i m wondering if maybe that s the cause or if it s something more serious. My second bowel movement was clear.

Hello. While this may have just been from what you ate you need to have a doctor check to see if you have a hemorrhoid problem or occult blood in your stool. We can't and shouldn't just assume it wasn't blood you saw
