Streak of blood in mucus

[suzerop]

This is my first time posting. I have had a problem that is worrying me. Here goes. I pass mucus with my stool I’m thinking because I have ibs. Anyway recently there is sometimes a small streak of blood in it. I obsess over this and look at my poop with a torch I’m embarrassed to say. I am so scared I have bowls cancer. Can anyone relate to this or give me some advise please

Hi and welcome :)

You do need to see your Dr for any bleeding from the bowel. It could be something simple like hemorrhoids or a fissure or even inflammation.
