I am very worried this has been going on for about 6 months sometimes it's better and other times it's worse. anyone with info on thos please help me. I also have pain in my abdomen sometimes I dont if they have anything to do with each other though.
Answer:
Bright red blood only on the toilet paper usually means hemorrhoids. That combined with your "pain with BM" probably means constipation. That combination would signal that your diet is very poor in fiber. Constipation will cause cramp like pains as the stool passes thru your intestines and it can be very painful. Take a look at the following links about constipation and see what you think. If they don't seem to apply to you, or none of the treatment info helps, then go to see your doctor.http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases...

Go to the doctor asap. I don't know what it is, but there's obviously something wrong if it's been like this for 6 months.
Its probably hemmeroids if the blood is bright red and if it comes and goes your diet is probably not helping add fiber to your diet. but definately see a doctor just to make sure
Doesn't sound too serious, I have had the same problem.
Probably your diet isn't very fiber rich and you become constipated and your stool becomes "harder" than it should.
Try a stool softener, you can buy them and any drug store or Wal Mart. I use Dulcolax. If the blood continues after you have used the softener, you may have hemorrhoids, in which case you can buy the appropriate creams or ointments for that at the same stores.
If these suggestions do not work with in 2 wks, you may want to consider a visit to the doctor, but I don't really think that you need to see one yet.
Good Luck
Your poop is getting too hard. Take some metamucil or make sure you have enough fiber. You could also try a stool softener like Sennakot. I think the pain, if it is mild, could be related.
