A member asked:

I have blood in my stool eveytime i have a bm. its bright red and very noticeable in the tissue. i used to have mucus too, but not in the last few mo?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably hemorrhoid: Most likely cause of bright red blood with BM is hemorrhoid. Hemorrhoids are dilated rectal veins that can be internal or external, can be irritated by hard stools when constipated. After childbirth many women have hemorrhoids also. You need to see Physician to be sure this is the cause & if so, treatments available for symptom relief & also definitive treatment by Rectal surgeon to remove
