Stool blood

Hello I’m a 28 yr old male. Live a healthy lifestyle I don’t drink or smoke and mostly drink water. I also run 6 days a week.

So I’ve been having bright red blood on my stools for the past 3 weeks and then I’ve been “bloated” 24/7 for the past week which is making my Lower back hurt. I went to a doctor and he just prescribed me some suppository’s for hemorrhoids but that didn’t work, so I decided to try another doctor out and he sent me a referral to a gastrointestinal doctor. Anyone want out there with the same symptoms? Could be cancer?

Glad that you called your doctor. If you still are bleeding, I would ask for a follow-up appointment - with a gastroenterologist if possible. Please keep us posted.
