blood in toilet

Ok so for 2nd time in 3 weeks, I have had some drops of blood (bright) in the toilet after a movement. Outside of this, I have no aches, no stomach issues, no pain, nothing.  The stool itself looks fine with none mixed in with it. (Do not ask how I know this, it is pretty gross) My bottom was pretty sore when I went today and the stool felt quite large.  I talked to my doc a couple weeks prior when this happened and he seemed to think it was just a hemi. Said I may see it again. After that one time, I had nothing until l today, then a couple of drops today. Again, my biottom when the stool was exiting seemed pretty sore, and yesterday, I noticed when I was sitting for a while, it was also sore. I have an appt with him this week just to check what is happening.

You might consider a stool softener to help things slide out less painfully. Your symptoms definitely sound like hemorrhoids. Hot baths may help with the discomfort also.

WHat causes a hemmie to occur?

I have added metamucil tablets two 3 times a day. We'll see what happens. LOL I just posted about my achy bottom, but I think my achy bottom is still due to when I was at the worst part of my flare during the summer months. I just want it to go away!
