8. Bowel Cancer
Bloody stools are often caused by benign medical health conditions that do not pose a serious hazard to someone’s overall health. Though most cases are like this, there are few occasions wherein a bloody stool is caused by a severe illness such as cancer. It is crucial to diagnose cancer at an early stage to prevent cancer cells from spreading to other parts of the body.
The early symptoms of bowel cancer are bloody stools, inflammation of the stomach, fatigue, sudden loss of weight, and unintentional change in eating habits. If you notice these symptoms, keep in mind that you may be at risk of bowel cancer.
