I had bloody stools and my family doctor gave me some meds and told me to stop eating nonvegetarian food. i m fine ever since. need i worry?

It depends: Did your doctor give you a diagnosis for your bloody stools? One of the most common causes is inflamed, bleeding hemorrhoids -- and these can sometimes resolve with dietary means. But if your doctor isn't sure why your stools were/are bloody, this needs further investigation.
