Red spots in stool

2023-02-13 19:57:54
I have been noticing few red spots in my stool from so 3-4 years. I don't know whether it is blood or not because it is mixed in stool. I had stool occult blood test done 2 times on alternative days. It came negative. I wanted to know what if the sample that i gave to test was not having those red spots. What should I do? Do I have to do any other test?
