Haematochesia: Or bright red blood per rectum denotes pathology of the lower Gi tract. The differential includes a variety of conditions with the most common for you age range being hemorrhoids or piles, anal fissure or inflammatory bowel disease among others. Would recommend starting by seeing your doc for an exam. In the interim avoid constipation and prolonged seating, maintain good hydration and exercise.

Why did i bleed when i poop? It hurts when i first took the initial poop and i started to bleed bright red. I don't think i see blood stools in the poop and it was difficult to tell. After i finished and wipe the blood was thick and sort of dark.

What makes some1 wipe bright pink/red blood in later wipes? Like the 9 wipe or the 15th wipe? If someone is directly bleeding from a bowel movement wouldnt they bleed on the 1st or 2nd wipe? Could it still be cancer? Even tho they have 2 keep wiping
