Exam!: Although you say it does not appear there was blood in the stool or toilet water you still aren’t certain where the blood came from. Even though the cause of the bleeding could be a mild abrasion it’s also possible a more serious underlying problem such as colon cancer could exist. I therefore suggest you get a complete medical exam as soon as possible. I wish you well with your health!
