Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The use of salt would not cause bloody stools. So, it is important for you to speak to your doctor because the actual cause of the bloody stools would need to be found, it is not the salt.
You can use extra fluids to help raise your blood pressure, at least 8 glasses a day, not including any caffeine products like coffee or coke because they cause the body to lose fluids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Michelle Gibson James
