Bleeding gums and bleeding in stool

2020-08-04 12:26:41
I have been having bleeding in my gums since the past 8-9 months. However, by the usage of a gum astringent and changing my dental hygiene, the bleeding has reduced, but not completely. Since the past 2-3 days I have been passing some blood in my stool. It is bright red in colour and very diluted blood. Are they related problems and how can I make it better?

Bleeding gums could be local cause but blood in stools needs detail history and evaluation.
