I'm 22 years old and have been noticing bright red/pink spots in my stool and on the toilet paper. it occurs occasionally, with no other symptoms.

Prob hemorrhoids: At 22 unless you have a chronic bowel problem its likely this blood is from the end of the colon like a hemorrhoid or fissure. I would simply see your MD or a gastroenterologist and have a simple exam they would be able to diagnose this easily
