Hi ! Good afternoon. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. From your drinking history it seems that you have got hemorrhoids with bleeding either secondary to a portal hypertension or as such. It might be also from a fresh GI bleeding like a duodenal/gastric ulcer.

My first line of management would be to advise you for complete alcohol withdrawal. Next I would advise you to report to the ER of a nearest hospital where you could be properly investigated after initial management of the GI bleed by a gastro enterologist.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
