What Is The Treatment For Blood Clots Attached To The Stool?
I have a history of ulcerative colitis and ibs.
The condition has gone in and out of remission for twenty years.
I am a fifty two year old asplenic female.
I have noticed lately red blood clots ( similar to those passed during menstruation ) attached to stools on occasion, and today after a large bowl movement, the smell of ammonia was present at the end of defecting.
I do not have health insurance.
