Blood in stool: If you are having blood in your stool, and especially if it is with diarrhea/watery stools, you should see a doctor for further evaluation. This could be for a number reasons. Harmless ones such as hemorrhoids or a tear can cause blood in stool, but it can also be due to more concerning causes such as infection or cancer. You should see a doctor for further evaluation.
