A member asked:
Very small amount of blood in stool normal colour and the stool is otherwise painless and healthy what could it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
At your age: Painless bright red blood in or on an otherwise normal bowel movement could be as simple as an internal hemorrhoid, but if bleeding becomes significantly more and/or the stool changes in consistency, frequency or size then definitely consult your doctor in person for an exam.
