Hello

Thank you for trusting HCM
Dear nothing to worry your not passed stool since 2weeks that may cause stool hardening leads to abrasion with rectal mucosa which gives blood in stools. Other possibilities fissure or Haemorrhoids.
Please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly. But till that time eat more fiber, syrp Duphalac 30ml at night time useful.
