Question
Hello doctor,
This morning, I went to the bathroom (to defecate) and had fresh blood. I'm often constipated, these past few weeks I have had a bowel movement like goat poop. The doctor told me to ask if it's okay to have a bowel movement with fresh blood and poor constipation for a long time? Thank you.

Hello,
With the question "Is it okay to have a prolonged bowel movement with fresh blood? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
This condition may be caused by damage to the anal margin, which is common due to constipation such as hemorrhoids, anal fissures... Patients should see a doctor to rule out dangerous diseases. as dangerous as colorectal cancer.
You need to avoid constipation: Take medicine, drink lots of water (3L/day), add more fiber. You need a colonoscopy to check.
