Hi friends,
With the question “What is the sign of blood in frequent bowel movements? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Fresh blood in the stool is the phenomenon of bleeding when defecating, which can be fresh blood dripping or blood sticking to the stool. In addition, patients often present with fatigue. This condition can stop after a few days or last for many days, warning signs of abnormalities related to the rectum and anus. Some common diseases are hemorrhoids, anal fissures, ulcerative colitis, polyps.
Ideally, you should go to a specialist and consult a Gastroenterologist for treatment.
