Hi Anonymous,

Thank you for your question. There are many different reasons that you will find blood in your stool. Check this website for the explanations of different locations http://www.medicinenet.com/rectal_bleeding/symptoms.htm.

The best way to make sure there is nothing wrong is to have tests run on your stool by your doctor. Hopefully this will help answer your question. You do not want to wait too long as blood in your stool is usually a good sign that there is something wrong internally.

Good luck,

Missie
