Hello,
According to your complain you have problem of more blood in stool that may be because of ulcerative colitis or intestinal polyp or diverticular disease or other reasons. Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis. Colonoscopy is helpful for further diagnosis. Detailed history and investigation give exact idea about problems.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
