Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

Its likely that you could be suffering from amoebiasis. I would suggest the following.


Thorough local examination by your Physician will reveal fissure/piles if it’s the cause of bleeding.
After ruling out local cause, I suggest the following
1. Stool examination: Stool microscopy examination for ova and cyst to rule out amoebiasis and other infective pathology
2. Trial of antibiotics: Combination of Ciprofloxacin + Tinidazole will be highly beneficial for amoebic colitis
3. If the bleeding persists inspite of antibiotic, Colonoscopy is indicated


In case you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.

Wishing you happy and healthy life

Take Care

Best Regards
