Stool???

Published

HI, this question is a little embarassing for me to ask....but what all could it mean after I go to the rest room and I wipe my behind and a small amount of blood is on the toliet paper? It does not happen every time I go to the rest room. it happened yesterday and then the last time was four months ago. IT is not a lot of blood it is only the size of 5 maker points total may this much :kiss this is how wide it is not very wide. I think it may be that (this is nasty) my stool is to large and it makes my rectum open to much? is this possible? I am only 20 what else could it be? I think I need a stool softner what do you think? OH and it is bright red..Thanks and sorry this is a stupid or nasty question but it happens......:devil:

I am so unsure on what to do:o :confused:

I does hurt when I bleed...but not when I use the restroom on a daily bases.

The older I get, the more I'm convinced that fiber is the secret to life.:rolleyes:

Lpnga, have no fear talking to your doc or nurse practicioner about your problem. You wouldn't believe how common a problem that is. But 'common' doesn't mean it isn't a concern.

As posters before have said, better to get it checked out, both for a for-sure diagnosis and for your peace of mind.
