Stool blood

[Jav9398]

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?

I am 44 - same lifestyle as you- and these symptoms just occured for me as well- I am going to Dr. tomorrow to hopefully get a referral to a GI- will let you know... Just wanted to reach out and let you know that others are going through the same situation.

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.
