Can see one's doctor: There are many causes of blood in stool, ranging from benign to cancerous. Bloody stools can be caused by hemorrhoids, colitis, polyps, colon cancer, and more. If a person has blood in his or her stool, it should be checked out by her doctor. Having a lot of blood or active bleeding from the rectum is considered an emergency. However, teens almost never have a serious cause for "blood in poop."
