Hello,
I'm new to this forum, and I have a
question relating to my husband.
Yesterday, we discovered a blood stain in
his thermal underwear approximately the
size of a quarter, maybe a little bit
bigger, and there were bloody smudges as
well. The blood was also discovered in his
boxer shorts which he wore under the
thermals, of course.
After much nonsensical arguing over where
the blood stain came from, (he said he
didn't know how it got there), we went to
the emergency room to find out what it
could be.
They examined him and found him to be
'healthy as a horse'; no reported pain, no
blood in his urine, no lesions, no blood
in his rectum or anywhere else in his
genital area.
The best they could come up with is the
possibility of him having hematuria.
I researched this and found he displayed
none of the symptoms.
Is is possible for a man to have a bloody
discharge without noticing it or
displaying any symptoms? Is it blood or
something else?

Was the blood red.. or dark.?
Red blood is usually a sign of a
hemorrhoid. Sounds like he might have a
hemorrhoid
.. But I would have him get a colonoscopy
to be sure there isn't something going on
in side..

I would set up a colonoscopy. Dark blood
is a sign of something going on inside..
they will look at his colon.
I have had one.. they DO NOT HURT.. the
prep it the hardest part just because you
have to drink this stuff that cleans you
our. But I hear they have a pill now..
He needs to go the doctor and have a
colonoscopy..

A TIP from the CLONOSCOPY MASTER! Posted: 03-09-08 00:07am
My father passed away from colon cancer
almost 2 years ago....whatever it is they
give you, the gallon of water that taste
like baking soda, the pills, the saline
crap......you ONLY have to drink it until
you start to POOP clear. Once you get to
this stage...you are READY! Don't eat
anything else before hand....as long as
you can popp clear liquid, you are good to
go. HAve already gone though this twice
and the last few glasses eneded upcoming
up through my nose and I blew chunks....I
ahave finally learned this lesson....only
until you are clear. Just trying to save
some poor unfortutnate soul a more
despairing afternoon! Its a piece of cake!

How often does this occur?
We've been married almost 15 years and
I've never noticed anything like this.
Is it possible for this to occur if he's
been masturbating or engaging in sexual
activity with someone else?
I ask this because on this particular day
there was no sexual activity between the
two of us due to the fact that I
discovered it before any intimacy could
take place, and then we argued (he said he
must have sat on some paint )
It's been a couple of months, and to my
knowledge the blood has not reappeared.
