Not normal: Blood in the stool is not normal and needs to be explained. Causes include local irritation, anal fissure ( crack in the tissue) hemorrhoid, polyp, inflammation( colitis ) and cancer. You will need to see a health care provider to get a diagnosis. White stool is also abnormal and warrants evaluation.

GI consult: Blood in stool ( hematochezia ) and white or tan colored stool ( acholic stool ) can be related to GI illness: please get seen, examined, evaluated, diagnosed and treated- ASAP!
