What does blood in stool look like?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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've just found out that I've got hemorrhoids and I'm only 17, so it's my first time dealing with them. Something odd has happenedwhen the hemorrhoids appeared, I noticed a bunch of pimples showing up around my butt and thighs. I usually get one or two pimples on my butt every few months, but now it's more like 20! Do you think this could be connected to the hemorrhoids somehow? It's kinda freaking me out and I'm not sure what to do. Any advice would be really appreciated.

I'm feeling uneasy because after having an endoscopy, I started having pain in my windpipe when I swallow food. On top of that, I sometimes experience mild to moderate stomach pain, usually when my stomach's empty like in the mornings. I never had any issues like this before the endoscopy, and now I'm really worried that there might have been a perforation in my stomach when they took a tissue sample, especially since I felt pain in my stomach during the procedure. Could this be serious? What should I do?
No i can't be a perforation. Take some anti gastric medication for one week and monitor for symptoms
