I Am a 29 year old male. I am currently on holiday in India and live in the U.K. I didn’t feel well yesterday and thought I needed the toilet but instead of stool there was a lot of blood. I’m feeling fatigue even though I have slept 12 hours . Not in pain just fatigue

hi
painless loss of blood through stools is indicative of hemorrhoids.
Loss of blood has caused you experience fatigue.
Drink plenty of lemon juice and water.
Get proctoscopy done to find out the cause of blood.
thanks
For me I would ask you some questions before confirming a diagnosis?
What is the color of blood?bright red or dark maroon?
Do you have any bowel habits changed? Constipation or diarrhea?
Do you have recently changed food habits?
Did you eat any spicy food or food from unguaranteed hygiene source?
I am expecting Meckel’s diverticulum or ulcerative colitis.
A gastroentrologist can diagnose it with history taking and colonoscopy.
HI
IF THIS HAS HAPPENED FOR THE FIRST TIME THEN IT CAN HAPPEN DUE TO RAISED BODY HEAT. TAKE HEMATINICS AND VITAMIN SUPPLEMENTS.
IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN,THEN CONSULT A DOCTOR.
hello there
fresh bright red blood in stools occurs due to piles,hemorrhoids. Black coloured blood ( occult blood) occurs due to intestinal causes. colonoscopy will help in diagnosing the exact cause.
drink plenty of fruit juices.
If you are pain free then it us propably either Diverticular disease or Angiodysplasia
In both cases you need an endoscopy to investigate and close the bleeding site
Also please mention the color of bleeding is it dark ? Or bright ?
Good Luck
