A member asked:

Our 6 month old baby has a little bit of blood in her poop. she does not have fever and drink normal. no change in her personality. must we monitor it or go to a dr immediately?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: Infants often have a scratch develop in their outlet (anus) if their poop is bulky or hard. That would produce a line of bright red blood adhering to the outside of a stool. This is minor. Darker blood mixed within the poop is more likely to reflect a problem that needs attention.
