Patient's question:
In the morning, when I went to the toilet, I noticed blood in my stool. What should I do if there is blood in the stool? How should I treat it to get rid of it? This is the first time this has happened to me in my life. It hasn't happened before, so I don't know what to do.Doctor's answer:
Bleeding in the stool is very likely caused by hemorrhoids, or it could be due to stomach issues that prevent proper digestion. Dry stools can also lead to blood in the urine. Conditions such as anal fistula or anal fissures can also cause blood in the stool. It is recommended that you visit a reputable local hospital's colorectal surgery department for a thorough examination and diagnosis to identify the specific cause of the bleeding. Symptomatic treatment should be administered. Generally, if detected and treated early, most cases can achieve relatively ideal results.
