Contact MD: Please have her contact her MD to seek specific advice prior to having the labs returned. Make sure she is well hydrated. Simple foods will suffice, as applesauce, rice, plain baked potato, toast. Also if she is having blood in her bowel movements, she must notify her physician. Hope she feels better soon.

My mom has been constipated over a week now. She usually has hard stools but one day, she had loose stools & she saw a tiny spot of blood on her stool. Could it still be hemorrhoids from constipation if she saw the blood the day she had a loose stool?
