Many of us have had problems bleeding when defecating. Symptoms mixed bloody stool is actually an important indicator of our body there is a health problem that needs immediate attention.
Bleeding during bowel movements are categorized as common problems that occur in our society, especially among young people in productive ages of 20 to 30 years.
This problem is more common in individuals who take too many refined carbohydrates, meat and eat less vegetables and fruits. Processed carbs means carbs cleaned source of external roughness through purification method.
In this process, almost all of the vitamins, minerals and fiber were discarded and the remaining just calories. To make it nutritious, some products are enriched with nutrients that are discarded to re-enter earlier. Some examples of carbohydrates is the white bread, sugar or material that is made from flour.
This is for individuals who consumed the carbohydrate-rich diet experienced more frequent urination problem, especially if they are also less likely to supply fiber, water and rarely exercise.
There are many causes that can cause bleeding during defecation. The most common causes are hemorrhoids and colon cancer as well as breaks in the skin anal canal (common and painful problem, due to constipation or to empty by force), polyps in the rectum and large intestine, and ulcers.
This problem is also called bleeding rectum (the last part of the large intestine) because the rectum is located right above the anus. Most rectal bleeding in the large intestine, large intestine or anal end. Large intestine is the part of the gastrointestinal tract, the passage of food after it is digested in the small intestine.
Large intestine is responsible for getting rid of water from digested food and store it until it is expelled as feces. Rectum is the last part of the large intestine (15 cm from the anus). While the esophagus, stomach, duodenum and small intestine called the gastrointestinal tract.
although many consider it quite embarrassing but dangerous symptoms can not be underestimated and should be given immediate attention to detect the exact cause cause bleeding.
Wait and see attitude can actually cause more severe problem because people thought it was not a concern when the bleeding stopped after a while without getting any treatment.
In general, the color of blood can give a rough idea of the cause, the disease and the location of the bleeding. If the color of the blood that is excreted in your stool bright red means the disease is close to the anal area (of the intestine close to the skin). It may be due to problems in the channel causes swelling and broken blood vessels as occurs in patients with hemorrhoids.
If the color of dark red blood means the bleeding occurs in the deeper parts of the gut. Generally more dangerous disease such as colon cancer. This is the cause of rectal bleeding are the most common.
The black color stools and sticky like tar (called melena) indicates there is bleeding in the upper part (base) colon, esophagus, stomach or duodenum (small intestine). Melena or tar stool is produced when the bleeding occurs in the large intestine too long, an opportunity for bacteria to act and describing the material called hematin black and smelled very foul. This is when the first rectal bleeding occurs, the patient should undergo immediate inspection.
In addition to color, the quantity of blood can also be an indication of the level of disease and problem of a patient. Mild rectal bleeding usually categorized as much blood out of every bowel movement. If this quantity more, mean bleeding has reached serious levels.
Rectal bleeding can also cause patients to feel fatigue, dizziness or fainting especially for those who suffer from serious bleeding. Sometimes patients may also experience symptoms of low blood pressure, especially when standing up after a long sit on the toilet.
The problem is, many of us do not get enough initial examination. Even patients refused to be examined because of embarrassment rather than merely asking medication. This attitude really needs to be changed because without inspection, the real problem facing will not be known.
According to experts piles, the first stage of the simplest inspection is a digital rectal exam that requires doctors to see and inserting a finger into the anus of the patient. The test is painless and only takes a minute or two only. Usually by this examination, the doctor can check the condition of the intestinal wall, swelling, hemorrhoids, cancer or tumor that grows at the end of the large intestine.
If the bleeding is not due to hemorrhoids, this means bleeding in the colon, which is deeper and further diagnosis should be carried out for 50 percent of colon cancer typically occurs at 15 centimeters into the colon (the anus).
In the early stages, patients generally can not distinguish whether the bleeding is due to hemorrhoids or colon cancer because many people who suffer from these two problems simultaneously. If found to have a tumor in the rectum, the doctor will perform a biopsy by taking a piece of tissue from the tumor to be examined.
Patients need to remove the sense of shame because it prevents the process of treatment. Most importantly, if the bleeding is due to cancer, it can be treated early. If no hemorrhoids or cancer, this means bleeding in the upper gastrointestinal. It can be ensured through colonoscopy test to confirm it.
Symptoms bloody stools occur even in children but it's usually due to constipation rather than cancer. However, for adults, do not do not ignored in this symptom because it an important indication of the existence of health problems.
