Why is my poop reddish and painful?

blood while pooping,and the part was reddish...and painfull

Dr. Samrat Jankar

Surgical Gastroenterologist

Answered on 23rd May '24

It is important to be concerned upon seeing red blood in stool. Swollen blood vessels in the anus or lower rectum, called hemorrhoids, might be the main cause. Alternatively, anal fissures, inflammatory bowel disease, or an infection could also be responsible. Make sure you drink plenty of fluids, eat food high in fiber, and do not strain when passing stool. To get proper treatment, you must see a gastroenterologist who will carry out the necessary medical checks before giving medication.

I am a Female, 35 years of age, weight = 46 kg, height = 166 cm. My b12 level < 125, vit d = 9, I took arachitol 6L injection (single dose) and imbisem xp spray for b12 since last 2 weeks. I was diagnosed with Antral Gastritis and Esophagitis LA grade B in endoscopy in March 2020. Curretly, I am taking VONOMAC 20, LESURIDE 25, and CIZASPA-X empty stomach in morning once, along with IMBISEM XP spray for b12 after lunch. Can I take SORBILINE SYRUP (2 tsp) with these medicines to reduce my digestive troubles and extreme acidity? Is it safe to take this liver syrup with my ongoing gastric medicines (empty stomach daily) and b12 spray?

Female | 35

Sorbiline syrup can be of help in cases of digestive troubles and acidity. The product includes natural extracts from the liver for better digestion. Although it is usually safe to take with your current medications, it is still a good idea to check with your doctor first to avoid any interactions. You should strictly adhere to Sorbiline syrup's recommended dosage.

What food is best is ice cream, tea cakes, fibre flakes ok if I have chronic ibs

Male | 42

If you are suffering from chronic IBS, the best diet to go for would be easy foods on your tummy. Ice cream, tea cakes, and fiber flakes may be questionable choices. Ice cream might be the cause of your stomachache, and tea cakes are too sweet. On the other hand, fiber flakes could be a high-fiber one, which can trigger IBS symptoms such as bloating and cramps and therefore be a reason for the worsening of the condition. You should make it a point to eat unseasoned foods like rice, cooked vegetables, and lean proteins to assist in calming your stomach.

What will happen to my body I am on strike for 24 days not eating food and just take 2 sips of cold water twice a day?

Female | 33

If you don't consume food for a month and only take sips of plain water not very often, your body is going to be very weak. There could be lightheadedness when competent thinking and muscles can even become smaller. In addition to being harmful to your organs, this also can be a matter of life and death. Eat properly to remain healthy. Try to take tiny portions of food and drink water many times in the day.

Hii.. My father had done Bypass Surgery on 4th December 2021.But from today evening he is suffering from severe Gas and Acidity. Please help what to do..??

Male | 56

There could be many reasons for gas and acidity after bypass surgery, including diet changes, stress, medications, or surgery itself. Some of the symptoms can be bloating, burping, and heartburn. It is important that you advise him to take smaller meals, steer clear of spicy foods, stay upright after eating and ensure he takes sufficient water. In case none of this seems to help then do not hesitate to contact his physician immediately.

I eat something eaten by rat accidentally

Female | 15

In their mouths and saliva, rats carry dangerous germs. If you eat food that happened to be gnawed on by a rat, you might develop symptoms such as stomachache, vomiting, or diarrhea. Ensure that you take plenty of water to keep yourself well-hydrated then look out for any serious signs like high fever. Just in case they occur, visit a doctor who will evaluate your condition further.

Hyperacidity gas & indigestion. Sour burping

Male | 29

You're dealing with hyperacidity, gas, and indigestion which can be pretty uncomfortable. Maybe it feels like you are stuffed with air and you have the following symptoms: burping out and having a sour taste in your mouth, tummy pain. This usually happens if you eat too quickly or have spicy foods. If you want to ease your symptoms, you could eat more slowly, cut back on spicy food, and take short walks after meals. Besides that, drink enough water.

Hello, I am a 19yo male. Months ago, I had some neurological symptoms and went to hospital. There, a blood test showed that I had really low B12 vitamin (under 90 pg/mL). I had some shots to increase B12 levels and hospital adviced me to go to GP and have gastroscopy and colonoscopy to find the cause of the deficiency, because it was not normal at that age to have that low b12 levels. So, the days I was taking the B12 shots and planning to go to a GP, I had some bowel symptoms, including changes in stool size (small-thin and rounded / however not hard to pass), and rarely a little blood on them. When I went to the GP, I told him the whole story and told me that I had to do some other blood tests first to see if there is any gastric inflammation and then we would see if endoscopy is needed. After doing several blood tests (ECR, CRP, etc..) and faecal calprotectin test, GP told me that results were normal and did not show any inflammation in stomach or colon, so no endoscopy was needed. He told me that these symptoms were from functional gastrointestinal disorders and hemmorhoids. All of these happened like 6 months before. Now, I still have small-thin and rounded stools (rarely i pass normal stools but most of times they are like that) - blood is very rare and in small amount. Generally, my diet is normal (includes fiber), i drink a lot of water, no anxiety, not anaemic, normal weight and I exercise. So, these changes in bowel habits that happened months ago (without having any lifestyle change) + little blood rarely + the B12 defficiency I had, make me think I should visit another GP and push for a colonoscopy. I tried to search if increasing B12 would cause such changes in bowel habits, but did not find something. The only family history I know are that some first degree relatives had a small B12 defficiency without symptoms and second degree relative had gastrectomy a lot of years ago. I am a little panicked because Ive been seeing colon cancer is on the rise among young people and unreasoned bowel changes that dont leave soon + blood (however mine is very rarely and little) may be red flag. Especially most cases in young people are advanced stages becaus they are not caught early. Thanks for reading till the end, what do you suggest me to do? Go to another GP? And even push for endoscopy? Finally, could the cause of hard pebble stool be somehow (?) the elevation of B12 so my system need some time to go back to normal again? Because B12 deficiency was slowly developing for years.

Male | 19

While low B12 levels can affect the body in many ways, they usually don’t impact bowel habits like this. It’s great that you’ve had some tests, and they’ve ruled out any inflammation in your stomach or colon. Your symptoms might be due to functional gastrointestinal disorders or hemorrhoids, which are quite common and generally not too serious. Keep an eye on your symptoms, and try not to worry too much. However, if you’re still concerned, getting a second opinion from another doctor might help give you peace of mind.
