What Causes Soft Stool With Blood Discharge After Alcohol Intake?
Question: I had too much to drink last night. Today I have soft stools with blood. Very red. Had a colonoscopy 3 months ago and no polyps. Could it just be irritation
Brief Answer:
Hemorrhoids and abnormality in blood coagulation to be considered
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for your query.
It is possible that you may have developed hemorrhoids. If it's a single episode, please be vigilant.
If it recurs it would be good to see a proctologist / surgeon and have yourself re-examined. Also liver function tests and coagulation studies may be required.
Do get back to me if you have further questions.
Kind regards
