Hi AllenVerallo,

Thank you for posting in Colon Cancer Connected.

We are sorry you are having these issues. How long has this been occurring with your stool?

There are many causes for blood in the stool, some are very treatable with medication, diet change, and minor procedures, and of course, there are more serious reasons for blood in the stool as well. For that reason, we always advise patients to seek medical care when they have blood in the stool.

Is there some kind of clinic you could go to have this issues addressed? I know with Covid going on, there might be a site you can get a virtual consultation to discuss and then gain a plan to have a doctor check it out? One way or another you need to gain some more knowledge on why this is occurring. That's important.

This site does not offer medical advice, but we are here to share our experience and offer our advice, but it should not replace speaking to your doctor.

Maybe someone on this site has some insight into the healthcare process in the Philippines. I would think there is a way to get this addressed given your situation.

We do wish you the best in getting this situation addressed. I wish we could be of more help, but it is something to get checked out by a medical professional. There are many reasons that could be happening and you need to narrow them down to address it. It would be great if you could share anything you find out as it could help other's as well.
