Is Blood In Stools Post A Fall A Cause For Concern?

I fell of a 8 ft ladder it kicked out from under me as I went to step on staging. When I fell my stomach it the staging and landed on my back when I hit the ground. It has been 5 days since I fell. I went back to work today and started pooping blood. What should I do?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, history of fall and symptoms of blood stain stool could be just co-incidence and this is nothing to take any thing with each other, blood stain stool could be due to infection, still to clear the doubt it is better to get done the sonography test, and stool analysis, hope this helps, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
