Can cocaine cause blood in stools?
    #4935371 -

A friend of mine told me that he finds blood in his stool on occasion. He said that this has been happening consistantly, only a few times on occasion. Sometimes the blood is accompanied by a greenish mucus. He hasn't been doing anything differently except using cocaine on a more regular basis than he normally does. He usually does 1 gram within a 24 hour period, rarely exceeding 2 grams, and has been using cocaine 3-4 times a week. Snorting is his only method of injestion. He also has been under extra stress lately at work and in his personal life. He says that he as also been drinking 2-3 beers every other day, and occasionally 6 on the weekends. No hard liquor or any other drugs other than 500mg of tyelonol to deal with the comedowns.

Could the cocaine have disrupted his gastrointestinal system, or possibly created an ulcer, or would that more likely be from the recent added stress?

The good news is that he said he has decided to delete his connection from his phone list and plans to stop using, but after I heard the problems he has been having I told him this may be something he should be concerned about.

He may have Irritable Bowel Syndrome but there is one other thing that I cant think of the name right now, but it makes your BM smell a LOT worse then normal.

here is some info on IBS http://ibscrohns.about.com/cs/faqsibs/a/ibsfaq.htm

Naw man, one of my family members has IBS...and that's not it.
IBS makes your shit loose, and bowel movements painful...usually no blood or funky stuff.
Tell him to go and see a doctor IMMEDIATELY.
Blood and mucus is BAD BAD news, I don't know if cocaine can cause that, but that sounds like a Denise.
Could be cancer of the colon, but thats worst case scenario.

He says that his bowl movements don't smell worse than they normally do. Cancer wouldn't be my first guess only becuase of his age. He's 24 or 25 and an appropriate weight, appears healthy. I doubt its IBS or chrohn's disease. He doesn't complain of abdominal pain or vomiting.

Gas

Bloating
Nausea

Mucous in the stool
Constipation

@ SporeDrinker
The blood could just be a hemroid is it IN his BM or on the outside.

He also says that after doing cocaine or even right before he knows he is about to do it he has to make a bowl movement, but from most other people I've talked to who use cocaine report the same thing. I'm sure that is just a side effect rather than an adverse condition. Anymore input is greatly appreciated.

I'm pretty sure its comming from inside, i'm sure he would have mentioned if there was something on the outside of his rectum. He also said that sometimes the bleeding is not always accompanied by stool. Just blood when he pushes to make a bowl movement.

I've been googling and I haven't found any connection between cocaine use and IBS, however IBS symptoms can be worsened by stress.

I also know that cocaine promotes peristalsis (contraction and relaxation of the bowls to push everything through the GI tract). Maybe all the cocaine use has inflammed his bowls?

If the blood is fresh(red) its probably hemmaroides, if its clotted (dark) its from the inside.
