Rectal bleeding: Rectal bleeding is most often from Hemorrhoids, less common a rectal tear: Consult with us to determine which you have and best treatment.

Anal fissure likely: But, blood in stool, regardless of age of the sufferer, is never normal. As such, and although the cause is likely easily explained (e.g. Hemorrhoids, anal fissure), it must be evaluated so serious pathology is not missed or diagnosis delayed.
