Bleeding during Bowel  Movements

Anal bleeding during bowel movements is the most common symptom of hemorrhoids. The blood may be bright red, or it may be mixed with stool and look brownish. The bleeding usually covers the stool but may also stain the toilet paper. Bleeding can also occur if you have an anal fissure (a small tear in the skin around your anus).

If you experience bleeding with bowel movements, see your doctor to rule out other causes of bleeding such as cancer or polyps in your colon (large intestine).
