What Causes Chronic Diarrhea Along With Blood In Stools?
I have had severe intestinal discomfort all day after waking up. I have been back & forth to the toilet all day with very loose stool. Now, this evening it appears to be that the stool may be bloody. I had normal diet yesterday with the edition of about a half-pound of fresh cherries. Is there a concern?

Hello,
Intestinal discomfort along with loose stools suggests gastrointestinal tract infection. I suggest you to consult your primary healthcare provider for prescription of antibiotic for infection. The symptoms will resolve after taking antibiotic. In the meanwhile you may take fluids and light food.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
