Must i tell someone right away if i am passing blood?

Yes: If you are talking about rectal bleeding, certainly you should have this investigated. While it may be something as simple as a hemorrhoid or small tear, it is also a symptom of more severe problems such as inflammatory bowel disease, an infection of the intestines, or even cancer.
