Thanks for contacting healthcare magic.

You have problem of blood in stool and alternative diarrhea and constipation problem that may be because of diverticulitis.
Intestinal infection like ulcerative colitis may cause bleeding in stool. Intestinal polyp may cause blood in stool problem.

As soon as possible consent a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis.
Total blood cell count and abdominal sonography is helpful for diagnosis . Colonoscopy can done for further diagnosis.

I hope my guidance is helpful to you..
Take care.
Thanks.
