Blood In Stool
Posted: 11-01-05 22:16pm

I guess the title is a bit misleading, tell you why in a minute, first let me explain, i'm really worried about this. Lately, for about the last week or so, I have noticed blood after my stole (feces) and am concerned, I have done research and all I find is topics on hemeroids and anal fissures, both to apperently cause pain, and i've also found topics about a blood coated stool, I on the other hand, feel no pain, and the blood comes after the stool, which leads me to believe that this might be like a minor cut in the canal, but i'm worried at the fact that its been happening for about a week straight. What might my problem be and what can I do to stop this?

If it is red after wiping it is not such a big concern, it is probably on the outer edges. I have had that many times. Possibly hemeroids or small affected area, it will go away.

If you poop is covered with black tar or you poop loose black tar colored diarhea--that is call for great concern. See .Dr immediately

the black tar color is "blood in the stool"
