Blood in stools

2017-08-14 14:18:58
Dear sir, My mother found blood in stools from past three days. Blood found in stool was in maroon colour. She is having irritating sensation at her tip of anus. Recently she was relocated to other place. She is taking medication for hyperthyroidism and high blood pressure. Please provide a suggestion. Why this is happening? She was diagnosed for fissures last year.
