  1. all the previous answers are possible. i feel PILES can also be causible.


  2. Generally eating something red, such as beets will turn excrement red.  More rarely, bright red (blood red to maroon) can be an indicator of bleeding in the last bits of the digestive tract, and needs to be examined by a doctor.  

  3. having red stool doesn'tt always indicate that it has blood. it depends on what food you eat; the pigments in the food that we eat are reflected on our stool. try eating green leafy vegetables only for a good 3 days, see what comes out of your stool, a greenish pigment. same goes with the red coloration, erythrin on plant plastids are the ones responsible for making your stool red :D

    i hope i was able to answer your question :D

  4. If you have blood in your stool you should get to a doctor ASAP. It could be a sign of colorectal cancer.  

  5. shouldn't be red... probably full of blood.

  6. It is most likely due to hemorrhoid.
