I’m 15 and For the past week and a half I’ve had blood in my stool I talked to the doctor and he said that it’s probably hemorrhoids , I went for a blood test and did I stool sample it’s been a week and I have not got a call , I’m not having any pain , pooping is kind of difficult because I have to really push sometimes , I’m still doing all my sports I feel fine it’s just I’m having blood in stool. I’m not sure if it’s a digestive problem or anal but if you know please let me know

It's great you've had blood and stool tests. Has the doctor examined you? Have you been able to see a doctor? Don't let them pass this off as piles unless they examine you and find some. Ive been really poorly for 2 years with them passing things off as piles. I've finally been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. I only got a stool sample done 1.5 years in! If your stool sample shows high inflammation they will investigate further. Keep on at them.

Hi, please keep up to it so you may solve the problem, which I pray is nothing serious, in time. Since you mentioned that you had to push to release the stool, it can be due to that, which may have tears your anus lining causing the bleeding

So when will your doctor be calling you, or can you call your doctor up to check on your results

It’s been almost 2weeks and no response, I have a feeling it’s ibs because blood in my stool isn’t consistent and I’m having lots of gas , I still feel normal and good , I will chat with the doctor tomorrow I think, thank you for checking up :)
