Q: Noticing Blood...

The past 2 mornings I have noticed blood on my toilet paper after having a bowel movement. Yesterday morning there wasn't too much, but what alarmed me was that this morning this was significantly more. I noticed very little on the bowel movements. I have no other symptoms and have been feeling fine.
One of my concerns is that about a month and a half ago I was under going a lot of tests for a swollen kidney. The doctors did not find anything and said that I could have just been born with a swollen kidney. Could the swollen kidney in anyway create this problem?
I am very concerned being only 23 and otherwise is good health. Any suggestions or ideas of what this may be are greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Noticing Blood...

It could be as simple as hemorrhoids. However, if I were you I would go have it checked out. I would also seek the advice of a naturopath to help with cleansing your whole system. Just a suggestion. This is what has helped me get healthier. I changed my eating habits and have incorporated a yearly colonix cleanse. I also do a heavy metal liver and kidney cleanse about once a year. You can check out DrNatura's site and read all about the program. But definately have it checked out even for your own piece of mind. Good luck. Let us know how things work out for you.
