Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
HI I am a 25 year old female who has been suffering from severe anxiety and panic for about a month and a half now. Tonight I had a lot of gas and burping and then had the sudden urge to use the bathroom. After I went I noticed that my stool was very loose and had a bit of red blood at the end of it. Could this be cause from stress?
Loose stool and blood in stool could be due to gastro-enteritis. It is not due to stress or anxiety. In that case, you need to consult a gastro-enterologist. You need antibiotic to control the infection. With antibiotic treatment, you would improve in few days. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
