Q: Help! Did Anyone Ever Have These Symptoms

Hello everyone
I have been having a problem the last 3 days with my bowel movements and stomach. When I go to the bathroom, I have a lil trouble going, but after I do, I notice a watery redish mixed with some brown substance on the toliet paper. However, there seems to be know blood in the stool or toliet, and I have no pain. I have had some cramping and have been burbing a lot. Also i've noticed that by back has tighted up a bit, probably bc my abdomen muscles are tight. Anyone ever experience this, or know what this could be? Any help would be greatly appericated. Thanks

Bowel Problem

It might be irritable bowel syndrome (ibs). See your family doctor, who'll may refer you to a gastroenterologist. It's more common in women than men. There is no specific medicine for it. For men, the doctor might prescribe a mild antidepressant to alleviate the symptoms. You can look up info on ibs, and see if it seems to match your symptoms.
