Blood in stool could be of 2 types.
Fresh blood red in color indicates bleeding from anus may be due to piles or fissure.
Bleeding from colon results in black tarry stool ,not fresh blood.
In case fresh blood in stool proctoscopy will help to come to diagnosis.
If you are passing black tarry stool you need to get sigmoidoscopy done.
Proctoscopy is a simple procedure.
Sigmoidoscopy is a bit lengthy procedure.
Next Steps
Consult a surgeon.
