Blood in Stool - Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment & Prevention | Rectal Bleeding
Blood in the stool, a symptom of various health conditions, can be caused by hemorrhoids, anal fissures, diverticular disease, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), colorectal polyps or cancer, gastrointestinal infections, peptic ulcers, angiodysplasia, and certain medications. Symptoms vary and can include visible blood, dark tarry stools, abdominal pain, changes in bowel habits, weight loss, fatigue, and anemia. Diagnosis typically involves medical history, physical exams, fecal tests, blood tests, endoscopy, imaging, and biopsies. Treatment depends on the cause and may involve over-the-counter remedies, dietary changes, medications, antibiotics, surgery, or endoscopic procedures. Preventive measures include a high-fiber diet, staying hydrated, regular exercise, avoiding strain during bowel movements, cautious use of NSAIDs, and regular cancer screenings. If blood is noticed in the stool, seeking medical attention is crucial for proper diagnosis and treatment.
