HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, certain conditions are there as long as the blood stain stool are concern like, fissure, hemorrhoids, intestinal infection, ulcerative disease of colon, all these needs to be ruled out in proper way, as you mentioned here that it is not the pile condition then fissure needs to be ruled out till then you can send the stool for laboratory examination, you could even wait for some time condition may be self limiting if it is due to constipation hope this information helps
