Poo in my blood, should I go to doctors?

Posted , 4 users are following.

Every time after a poo there is sometimes blood either after wiping or in the poo itself.

Colours can differ, mostly its been bright red or not at all. I went to the toilet today and it was dark reddish and in the poo too, the poo wasn't completely red just patches.

I did my research and I might have bowel cancer and really worried. Should I goto the doctors?

    Go to your doctor and give him all the information that you have quoted here-you may need a colonoscopy!

    It may not be cancer but without this test you will only be guessing!

    Good Luck

    Yes go to doctor.  This stuff is really tough to self diagnose.  The doctor can guide your through the diagnosis process

    Don't hesitate get this diagnosed. I had the same symptoms and delayed until eventually was diagnosed with bowel cancer and after various treatments i.e.  chemo etc. and surgery I have now been given my life back thanks to the NHS.
