Blood from the Rectum

It is not common for there to be excessive bleeding from the rectum and anus.

Sometimes rectal bleeding is noticed with a bowel movement. However, in most cases blood in the stool may not be visible (microscopic) and is only detected with diagnostic investigation like a fecal occult blood test (FOBT).

When blood is visible, it may either appear fresh blood or dark blood in the stool.

The fresh red blood is known as hematochezia and it may be seen with wiping after a bowel movement. In rare cases the blood may be seen in the toilet during a bowel movement or as bloody diarrhea. Fresh red blood is a sign of bleeding lower down the gut, in the large intestine, rectum or anus.
