A member asked:

I have a been bleeding from the back passage for at least 3 months now and sometimes there is a lot of blood, what could this be?

Could be bad: Should have this looked at. Bleeding from the behind for three months starts looking less like hemorrhoids and more like one of the more sinister causes of bleeding such as tumor.

Too many things to: Go into here except to say this is not normal and should be evaluated by a colon rectal surgeon promptly. May just be hemorrhoids, colitis, polyps, tumors benign or malignant. I don't know your age or medical history but regardless please see a specialist sooner rather than later.
