What Causes Lower Belly Pain With Red Blood In Stool?
I have had lower belly pain for the last 4 days, and red blood in my stool. I have been having a lot of gas for weeks now, and have gained a lot of weight about 15 to 20 lbs, in the past 3 or 4 months. I am quite uncomfortable today. What is going on, should I go to the ER ? I do not have an E-mail address

Hi,
The strong belly pain with red blood in stool indicates possible inflammation of the intestine or colon.
It is recommended to visit your GP for getting a referral of gastroenterologist who will proceed with clinical examination and further guidelines in accordance with that only.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
