Accepted Answer

: You've been suffering for a year and you have not sought medical attention because why? 5 most dangerous words in the English language, "Maybe it will go away." Your problem has not self-healed. Put down the computer. Pick up the phone. Call a general practitioner to begin the diagnostic process.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Get evaluated now: This issue needs evaluation asap. There are many causes for rectal bleeding in a 16 year old with inflammatory bowel disease being one of the most likely ones.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Hemorrhoids : Try some stool softeners and steroid creams OTC. If not better, see your pediatrician.

Question 8

blood in spit after drinking. happened 4 times. did not drink that much. no vomit just spit. ?

Accepted Answer

Blood: If you can tell for sure that fresh blood is coming from your mouth and not your stomach, bronchial tubes or lungs, then a careful examination of your mouth and back of your nose by an Otolaryngologist is advisable. A dentist can determine whether you have gum disease as a cause. If you have black bowel movements, bleeding from the upper digestible tract is likely.

Question 9

i think i'm pooping blood, but it looks more like red mucus. what is this? it's just red and looks thicker than liquid with yellowish mucus with it.

Accepted Answer

See your doctor!: Pooping blood and mucus is not normal, and could signify some conditions which need treatment.  Otherwise it could get worse.  Inflammatory bowel diseases can produce diarrhea with blood and mucus like this.  Please see your doctor as soon as possible.  Be well.

Accepted Answer

Any : Any child with weight loss and bloody stools needs to have a thorough work-up to rule out illnesses such as infections, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, tumor or vascular malformation.  These symptoms are concerning for any child  - even one with healthy kidneys.  You should call your child's doctor if the current treatments are not working and discuss other possibilities and treatments.  Your doctor may need to do additional testing or may need to send your child to a gastroenterologist for further work-up.  Good luck!
