Brief Answer:
Observe only? Does your diet contain anything reddish?

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have reviewed this information fully. because there are no other symptoms of concern that could suggest bleeding from the bowels at this time, I will suggest that you monitor only. Also, make sure there is no reddish foodstuff in your diets as this could be a possible cause. If anything new adds to this, also keep me posted for review, more insights and further recommendations.

I wish you well. Keep me posted and feel free to follow up if more information and details are required.
