What Are The Red Streaks In My Stool?
I am 32 years old, don t receive regular treatment except I had a stomach balloon inserted for weight loss a month ago. 5 days ago, I started having severe watery diarrhea with much fat. I did stool analysis and was fine. yesterday I started to notice red streaks in my stools, not sure if are dead worms or what.I did another stool analysis today waiting for results. am worried what could those read streaks be? also,I ve been experiencing incomplete voiding sensation, since childhood. did many investigations but were normal. since 5 days it became much worse after every urination.

Hello,
The red strikes on stools may be blood and hemorrhoids are possible. Straining to go to the bathroom can make them bleed. You can talk to a surgeon to examine you physically to see if this is true.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
