Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Blood In Stool And Back Pain Post Workout?
After a hard workout with weights, i felt back pain. That day I had a bowel movement and there was some blood in my stool. 3 days later I had another back workout and strained the same muscles and again had blood in my stool. The days in between I worked out but didn t strain those muscles and had no blood during bowel movements. any ideas?
The symptoms seem to be related to hemorrhoids. They can be triggered by workout. I recommend to see a proctologist to confirm the diagnosis. Meanwhile, I suggest using an anti hemorrhoid cream for local application such as Preparation H.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
