I have been experienceing rectal bleeding
when I wipe. There are not huge amounts
of blood, but small bright red streaks. I
see it everytime I wipe now. Most of the
time there is no pain accompained with
this. I have also noticed occasionally
that there has been a runny mucus
discharge when try to have a bowel
movement. I don't know if this is
unrelated, but a few weeks ago i had a
bowel movement on accident and had no
control over it. This could also be
unrelated- but I pee a lot. Sometimes its
every 10mins, sometimes is every few
hours. I wake up at night to go to the
bathroom, and often times when I try to
pee nothing comes out. Is this something
to be conserned about? Should I go to the
doctor? What is causeing this?
Thank-you!

Rectal bleeding (rectorrhagia) can be
caused by hemorrhoids. Anal fissures can
also cause rectal bleeding. Anal mucous
discharge is probably due to rectum
inflammation (proctitis). Hemorrhoids and
fissures are usually accompanied by an
infection. You can request a physical
examination from your GP to diagnose your
symptions.
Frequent peeing or urination in small
quantities of urine (or none at all) could
be caused by a urinary tract infection
(UTI). You can also request a urine
examination to confirm or exclude a
possible UTI.
