Dark stool but not tarry?

When I went to the bathroom today I had very dark stool but it wasn t tarry it was hard. I ve been a little bloated lately. A couple days back there was a very little blood inside my stool in red chunks. A month or so back I had a single occur lance of bright blood on the toilet paper and in the toilet. I m 18 and I m a little nervous.

    The red blood could be from a hemorrhoid or anal fissure, but if you're having a black or tarry stool, it could be a bleeding from your colon, go see a doctor soon. God Bless You!
