    Hi only had symptons like this when first saw blood which lead to diagnosis of UC & worsening symptons. It could be haemorrhoids but any blood coming from body should be investigated so suggest a visit to your GP or call To IBD clinic is the sensible thing to do. Hopefully it won't be a full blown flare up starting but my advice is don't leave it unchecked at this stage.

    Yes i had this type of bleeding many times and its the imflamation of the rectum which is the first sign of a flare up, mostly I get this type of bleeding at the end of a bowel movement.

    The best way to stop this bleeding is do relaxation excesice, deep breathing and get your self out of the stresses of day to day life.

    I have been diagnosed just under a year, the frequency, urgency and lethargy are gone but nine times out of ten I pass blood. I asked my consultant and he was totally unconcerned, he was far more interested in frequency and consistency (gross I know!) and as they are all much improved he said that was the main thing and not to worry. Interestingly when I was first diagnosed my foliate levels (iron reserves) were low and stayed low for about 6 months but have now come up to normal levels yet I still bleed. Ulcerative colitis seems quite a mystery, we all have the condition yet we all have different symptoms.
