For the past few weeks I guess (I lost track), I get a bad cramping
stomach ache before I have to go to the bathroom but I hate going now.
When I do....it hurts. I believe that some of the blood on my stool
and paper is from rectal tears probably but i have mucus too more often
than not. I am only going to be 20 next month so I am doubting cancer
of any type but at this rate I don't know. I just want to keep that in
the back of my mind because I have a I havn't told my fiance or my
doctor yet because I have a 2 year old and a 4 month old. I want to do
some investigating but I don't know what to search for. It seems that
no one has the same thing I do. My paper is BRIGHT red, somtimes with
very small clots but they could also just be mucus (though I think the
first is a better assumption to the looks of it).

Thanks for any insight you can offer,

Chauntel


Dear Chauntel,

I advise you to consult a Gastroenterologist for a Colonoscopy to examine your
colon thoroughly.
Although you are young,cancer of the colon is still possible especially if you
have risk factors like;family history

Good Luck
