Blood after going to the toilet
18/F
Okay, basically, the subject says it all.
About 2 weeks ago, after going to the toilet [poo!] I noticed bits of blood on the paper. Didn't really worry me too much, cos that's quite common.
It happened every time until 3 days ago when there was alot more blood [small drips in the toilet bowl] I grew more worried, but again thought it could just be one of those things. 3 days later I needed to go again and yes, it happens again. Not so much this time. Well, not enough to drip into the water O.O
I need advice as to what the hell this could be.
I know I need to tell someone and get it sorted, but today is sunday and that's quite a big problem for me seeing as I will not see parents until tomorrow. Tomorrow I most probably will tell them to put my mind at ease.
Anyway, I'm kinda scaring myself here because yes, this is a symptom of bowel cancer. I know I shouldn't be thinking the worst, but lets face it, everyone does. I need more information on this - like what it could be. ALL information is welcome. I cannot stress that enough! Like if it's happened to you or someone you know...
I really need help with this. I would surf the net myself, however, I'm on a local computer and I don't really feel comfortable with searching for this type of thing with public around =\
I'll check back in a couple hours. Thankyou to ANYONE who answers this question.

Yes, this could be a symptom of something serious. It could also be a symptom of something much more mundane and treatable. You will need to see a doctor as soon as possible for a diagnosis and treatment plan - not to mention your own peace of mind.
If you are only pooping every three days, you will want to mention this to your doctor. You might not be ingesting enough fiber, and this can also cause poop to be harder and tear your skin as it comes out - leading to blood on the toilet paper.
Write down your symptoms as accurately as you can, and take this paper timeline with you when you see your doctor. This will help him/her have a better understanding of what's going on.
I wish you the best.

Well, i know that if you strain too much while you go poop that a little blood will be there when you wipe and such. So maybe its that. But if its not that i would really think about going to the doctors.
Good luck
