Hello
Your stool examination reports is within normal limits except for occult blood. Blood in stools is an indicator of some problem in the digestive tract probably ulcers, growth, polyp or inflammatory bowel disease. It is important for your doctor to determine the source of bleeding to diagnose and treat the cause. However appearance of blood in the absence of any disease occurs in diarrhea, colitis, constipation.
