What Causes Blood In Stool When Diagnosed With Ulcerative Colitis?

I have for a long time had some spots of blood on toilet tissue after wiping. Also noticed my stool is fairly thin an curls at the ends.. pretty terrified it is cancer.. i have been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis from a colonoscopy about 6 years ago.

Hello. You need to visit gastroenterologist and have a follow up. Kindly visit at the earliest. There is a need to rule out cancer. Though you need not worry because colonoscopy was done just 6 months back and they suggested only ulcerative colitis. Do not take spicy food. Take plenty of water, fruits and fibrous food. All the best
