You might see blood mixed with stool or blood at the end of passage of stool and even dark or black stools. Bright red blood usually indicates bleeding that's low in either colon, rectum or anus. Dark red or maroon blood indicates bleeding that's higher in the colon or small intestine. Dark stools indicate that bleeding from stomach most probably an ulcer. Sometimes, you may observe loose stools mixed with streaks of blood which is seen in infections like dysentry.

View allI'm really struggling with my motions. For the past month, I've needed to go at least three times a day, and it's becoming quite an issue. Since I've been going to the gym for about a year and a half, I had to up my food intake, and it seems like that's when the motion problems started. I also have a gastric problem, and even though my digestion seems fine, I just constantly feel like I need to go. It's been tough to eat because of this sensation. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I might need to change to feel better?

I'm wondering how I can tell if I have worms in my stomach. Sometimes it really feels like something's moving in there. What could be causing this sensation?
Feeling something moving inside your stomach could be a sign of a parasitic infection such as intestinal worms. To treat this, you can take Albendazole 400mg as a single dose. It is important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
