Are Pain In Throat, Ear And Blood In Stools Connected?
I am a 19 year old male and my throat has been hurting for the past week. It only hurts on my right side and my right ear hurts too. And just recently I started to poop blood, are these two things connected to one another? I am very scared and I want to know what is wrong with me.

Ussually these are not connected. you probably have a ear infection. about blood in stool are you constipated? Ypu could have a fissure and hard stools causes tearing of the anal mucosa.If you are have a high fiber diet , plenty of water and you could try a laxative like polywthylene glycol once day to make stools soft so that the anal area heals. anothe rcause could be hemorrhoids. you will need to be chcked for that. can you feel any protrusion near your anal area?
