Hello,
* As per my surgical experience, the blood stain at a stool with bottom cramps indicates possible intestine infection as colitis, amebiasis or else.
* Needs a stool microscopy examination and proper line of management with GI specific antibiotic as metronidazole, anti-worm medications with supportive care.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
