What Causes Blood In Stool When Diagnosed With IBS?
Last Thursday night, I had a bowel movement. The movement was easy; no straining. Upon finishing, I discovered that the water in the toilet bowl was bright red from blood. When I wiped, the toilet tissue was also red from blood. This is the third or fourth time it has happened this year. Should I make an appointment with my doctor? I have not been diagnosed with hemorrhoids, but I have been diagnosed with IBS-D. Should I be concerned about this? Thank you for your help.
