A member asked:
I am a teen and recently i've had a bloody stool.i was wondering if this is severe or normal and harmless?

Maybe,maybe not: This could be because you had a hard/bulky stool=benign, or because you have an infection (potentially serious) or because you cannot clot your blood and are bleeding out (deadly). It is worth investigating.
