Blood in stool in the morning

Many people have the habit of defecating in the morning. Especially in the morning, we drink a glass of honey water after getting up, which is good for the body. In summer, because the weather is hot, some people with good health are prone to getting angry. After getting angry, it is very easy to cause dry stools, which can cause anal fissure bleeding. So how to treat bloody stools in the morning?

Blood in the stool is a special symptom of bleeding in the lower gastrointestinal tract, especially the colon, rectum and anus. It indicates that there are organic lesions in the intestines. It must be taken very seriously, diagnosed and treated in a timely manner. The following diseases should be considered when blood is present in the stool:

① Bright red blood and no pain are mostly seen in internal hemorrhoids. Stage I hemorrhoids are characterized by blood in the stool, which is often caused by stool rubbing the hemorrhoids and bleeding. The blood may drip continuously, or be a line like an arrow, or only be on the toilet paper. Stage II hemorrhoids do not bleed much or at all in the stool, and often prolapse outside the anus.

② Anal fissure with blood in the stool is often accompanied by anal pain and typical cyclical pain after defecation.

In the early stages, blood in the stool is bright red or dark red, and the amount is not large.
