What Could Red Spots In Stool With Cramps Suggest?
I found red spots in my stool and later (because I hadn t checked the first time) I saw that there is blood on the toilet paper. I ve been having some cramping but it felt something like what I used to have before I was on the depo shot. I never really payed attention so I don t know how long this has been going on. My brother has had ulcers and my grandfather had colon cancer. Should I be worried? What should I do?

Blood in stool that indicate bleeding occur in digestion tract.
In dueodenal ulcer may cause bleeding in stool.
Sometime gastrointestinal infection may cause this problems. Ulcerative colitis may rule out.
Stool examination test is helpful for diagnosis.
Colonoscopy is helpful for further diagnosis.
Wish you a good health.
Take care.
Thanks.
