Hi
Ive been suffering constipation for about a week and yesterday I went for a meal and got really bad belly ache. I had to come home early it was so bad I knew the only thing that would ease the pain would be a bowel movement so I sat on the toilet for about 10 mins and in the end I managed to go it was hard at 1st and hurt when it came out then I had the diarrea after when i wiped there was a bit of red blood there not sure why? Im sure it was blood although i had had a really rich tomato sauce with the meal (but dont think it was that) Ive never really had stomach problems before apart from indigestion what could this be im worried? (Im 22 by the way)

Hi:
The blood, unless it was a lot, could very likely be related to your straining to make the bowel movement. Small capillaries can break and bleed in that situation. That doesn't sound serious, however significant amounts of blood in your stool should not be taken lightly. If it continues, you should see a specialist immediately. Perhaps you ate something that did not agree with you and your body has now purged the problem. If you are feeling well now, and there is no more blood, it sounds like you are doing fine. Please let us know.
