Rectal bleeding and bowel problems

I experienced 3 days of slight rectal bleeding on wiping and around stool. First time I'd been slightly constipated and passed a large stool and second time had a sharp pain while passing stool. It stopped but immediately after felt pressure in my back passage. Had lots of excess gas and tummy cramps /bloating and seem to switch from constipation to normal stool to loose stool. Anyone experienced similar. I'm a 42 Yr old woman. 

  • Welcome to the forum Bibbidybobbidy although I'm sorry to hear about the symptoms you've been experiencing.

    Our members know how worrying it can be when any unusual or unexplained symptoms start to appear so hopefully some of them will stop by soon to offer you their support and advice.

    In the meantime, if things don't improve, it would be best to book an appointment with your GP as they'll be able to investigate this further and let you know if it's any cause for concern. Hopefully that won't be the case, but it's always best to be safe, if only for peace of mind.

    Fingers crossed everything will be o.k Bibbidybobbidy.

    All the best,
