Is this dry blood in my poop or is this an upper GI bleed?

[Chrnettl1]

I had a very bad flare up for two days where I bleed when I pooped and I lost 4 pounds in the process, my blood was bright red.... I’m back to “normal” but my poop is looking normal colored with darkish brown pieces streaked and mixed in. Photos down below GRAPHIC PHOTOS...

Is this dry blood? Is this normal?

Best to get checked with the doctor just incase it needs further investigation and to put your mind at rest, the longer you leave it, the more you will worry.

Yes I had it checked into by my GI doctor, he said it was dry blood. Which was true, my stools went back to normal the next day, thank you for your comment!
