▲ 5 r/alcohol
Blood in stool? TMI sorry.
I struggled with alcohol abuse for a few years. I quit and would only drink every other weekend. I was recently pregnant and took very good care of my body during that time. The entire 9 months, my stools were normal and actually quite healthy. I have been diagnosed with IBS and hemorrhoids in the past because I would bleed after using the bathroom which led to me having two colonoscopies. I drank last night, about 8 shots over a period of a few hours. Today I have been pooping blood (bright red) and have experienced some itching afterwards followed by a blood clot. Could my night of drinking have caused this?
