Hello, Having bright red blood in the stool of new onset is a symptom of concern and could be due to the chemo he has been given, however, to be certain it requires evaluation and kindly inform your treating oncologist at the earliest. Is he having any other symptoms and how many times has he noticed blood in stools, if it is multiple times then he requires urgent medical attention? Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
