This doesn't happen to me much but it does.
I think when the doc says it's normal he means it. Who would go around telling people they bleed when they're in the can?
I just bled again today. I was a bit more scared this time than the others. The water was almost completely red,
Causes are varied
Bleeding from your rectum can occur for many reasons, including:
Constipation. Passing hard, dry stools may scrape or tear your anal lining, causing an anal fissure. You may notice small drops or streaks of bright red blood on your stool, on your toilet tissue or in the toilet bowl.
Hemorrhoids. These swollen and inflamed veins in your anus and rectum are another source of rectal bleeding. Again, you may notice small drops or streaks of bright red blood on your stool, on your toilet tissue or in the toilet bowl.
Diverticular bleeding. Diverticula are small, bulging pouches in the large intestine. Diverticula may cause painless, but sometimes severe bleeding.
Infection. Some bowel infections cause diarrhea and rectal bleeding. Abdominal cramping, nausea, vomiting and fever may be present as well. These infections are usually caused by eating contaminated food.
Colon polyps. A polyp is a small clump of cells. Although most colon polyps are harmless, some may eventually become cancerous. You may notice bright red blood on your toilet tissue after you've had a bowel movement.
Peptic ulcers. Peptic ulcers are open sores that develop on the lining of the stomach, upper small intestine or esophagus. Sometimes the ulcers bleed. In addition to upper abdominal pain, you may notice dark blood in your stools or black, tarry stools.
Inflammatory bowel disease. Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease are examples of inflammatory bowel disease. These often painful and debilitating conditions cause chronic inflammation of the digestive tract. Food moving through your digestive tract can cause the inflamed tissue to bleed. You may notice bright red blood in the toilet bowl or darker blood mixed with your stool.
Lack of blood supply to the bowel. If the blood flow to your small intestine or colon is reduced, you may develop intestinal ischemia. This may cause bright red or maroon-colored blood in your stool.
Colorectal cancer. Most colon and rectal cancers begin as small, harmless clumps of cells called polyps. Eventually, some of these polyps may become cancerous. You may notice rectal bleeding, along with a change in bowel habits, narrow stools, abdominal discomfort, a feeling that your bowel doesn't empty completely and unexplained weight loss.
In addition, iron supplements, certain foods — such as beets, licorice or blueberries — and some medications — such as bismuth subsalicylate (Pepto-Bismol) — may change the color of your stools to red, maroon or black.
ok guys im a 27 year-old guy that isnt very active unless i have to be and i was takinga shower to day and i farted and started bleeding a lil at first and then when i Rinced i was bleedinga lil more and so i rinced again and i started bleeding more out my but what could cause this
I've been having the same issue and I don't know what it is. it's been three days now. that I've been bleeding out my butt when I go poop. I want to know what it is.
Hey guys!
No concerns haha.. there are two results from bleeding when "pooping" as you call it.
First concern: (not really a concern) but if you end up "forcing" your feces to come out of your stomach due to constipation then you may be applying pressure to your rectum causing blood to flow out of your rectum. Because poop comes out of your "inside body" which flows with blood.
Second concern: When forcing yourself to take a "dump" then you may be cutting the inside of your rectum with poop. Thats why you can feel sharp pains sometime when your poop slides out of your rectum-its making cuts cause your forcing it out. The inside of a rectum is made with the same tissue inside a mouth, that's why its sensible and easily cut from hard poop aka constipation.
Any concerns then shoot me a question. ;) hopes this helps in any way guys. AND you don't need to worry about the bleeding. It's a natural human thing. Even animals go through constipation. So you guys are perfectly safe.
