Symptom #6: Blood in Stools
If you have scratched or damaged your rectum somehow recently then you may find that there is some blood in your stools. If this is the case then you should make sure you get the wound treated to help prevent an infection occurring. Some people with hemorrhoids might also experience blood in their stools.
Other than this, it is not at all normal to have blood in your stools and it is a sign that something is probably wrong. Indeed, it is a sign that you may well be suffering from bowel cancer. If you do spot blood in your stools for no apparent reason then waste no time in finding out what is causing it.
