Brief Answer:
Could be typhoid or paratyphoid

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

There could be many causes for blood in stool with bloating like typhoid and paratyphoid infection, worms, piles, anal fissure and other causes.

Please see a surgeon for definitive diagnosis.

Typhoid test like Widal or Typhidot can be done to rule out this infection. Stool complete examination including, ova, cysts, culture and sensitivity can also help find cause.
Meanwhile, drink cleaner water and eat soft food.

Regards,
Dr. Vaishalee
