What Do Red Streaks In The Stool Indicate?

I have a question on stools. A couple of weeks ago I started to take notice of my stool sample. I am 53 good health don t smoke or drink and have no current issues. I had a colonoscopy at 53 and it was good maybe one polyop. So during the last couple of weeks I have had some red streaks or some small redish areas contains in my stools. I have a physical scheduled next month on the 22nd. Just didn t know if I should be overly concerned about this or should I call and make an apt prior to next months physical?
