What Causes Blood In Stool And Indigestion Problems?
Question: I have been having major indigestion issues for months now but im told it is all my nerves. Im a 19 year old male, im definitely on the lighter side (110-115 lbs) ive seen multiple doctors and a gastro specialist and theyve all told me im fine without a doubt even though theyve done minimal tests on me. Ive been having blood on my toilet paper when i wipe for about 2 weeks now on and off but today i had blood in the stool. it was only a little bit but im extremely worried. Should I panic? I can attach a picture of the stool but I did not want to do so with out warning.

Hi,
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your message.
I think I can help you.
The symptoms of the query are quite suggestive of a possible anal fissure or fistula.
It is something that the doctors you have seen won't be able to help you with.
You need to meet with a surgeon.
Meanwhile, start with the isapghula husk 3tsf at bedtime, plenty of fluids, avoid non veg food, choose high fiber diet.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information contained in this message will be able to help you find the best solution for your problem. Best of luck. Dr Mittal
