What Causes Lower Stomach Pain And Blood In Stool?

Hello I am writing in for my husband. He has started having lower stomach pains right before he has to have a bowl movement. And the pain continues during the bowl movement but stops after he has gone. There is blood in his stool but not all the time and it is light and not a lot. He has normal bowl movements and this has just started but he is worried. Please any ideas.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of lower stomach pain and blood in stool. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like

- constipation
- irritable bowel syndrome
- lack of fibres in diet
- intolerance to dairy products or other food items
- eating too fast
- overgrowth of bacteria in the small bowel
- giardiasis

Need not to worry. You should avoid intake of sharp spicy and oily food substances. I would suggest you to avoid food like dairy products , drink warm water. You should do light exercises and eat light and non spicy food. If condition doesn't get well then consult gastroenterologist for proper examination. Doctor may prescribe H2 blockers , proton pump inhibitor along with antibiotics and anti inflammatory .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
