A member asked:
I have ibs, with recent stools that have yellow spots in it. something to be concerned about?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Ibs is usually not associated with blood in stool unless it is due to hemorrhoids. I suspect you may not have the correct diagnosis. Please see a GI doctor or colorectal surgeon for a thorough work up. No amount of bleeding is normal.
