What Causes Blood In Stool After Recent Incident Of Nasal Bleeding?
Hi, I had a nose bleed while i was working in office. I tilted my head up to stop the bleeding and held the nose tightly. While i tilted my head up i felt like i swallowed some blood. After some time when I went to the toilet, I noticed that I had blood in my stool. After a few hours I again went to the toilet to make sure then there was no blood. Now after reaching back home, i was curious so I went again and this time I found blood in my stool. Any suggestions?

Hi,
Having nasal bleeding and swallowing some blood does not give blood in stool and if blood is there this might have turned stool black and it does not show immediately.
As there are few bleeding point go for your blood pressure measuring as sudden increase in high blood pressure does cause this problem.
If you are on some blood thinner medicine then there can be bleeding.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
Ok and take care.
