Speak with doctor: Would like to help but not enough information provided to offer any specific advice. The most common cause of blood in the stool is bleeding internal hemorrhoids. But there can be other causes also. If you are concerned speak with your doctor or speak with a doctor online here at Health Tap. For information on hemorrhoids see: http:///wb.md/1Jj80zo
