Hi
There are many causes of blood in the stool.
One of them is infection especially if associated with mucus and stool is watery.
Others can be milk allergy.fissure.piles, and some surgical causes and sometimes bleeding tendencies.
The treating doctor will advise u further tests if situation does not improve.
Good luck
