Can taking asprin cause blood in stool?

Yes: Fecal blood can be caused by Aspirin use, particularly if used chronically, in high doses, concomitantly with other drugs that may cause gastrointestinal bleeding. If you are having blood in your stool, the causes should be evaluated. Sometimes it just bleeding hemorrhoids or fissures.

Yes: Aspirin can irritate the stomach and lead to bleeding. Aspirin also "poisons" platelets, which may lead to easy brusing or bleeding.
