Bright red blood is usually hemorrhoids and nothing to really be concerned with. Black, coffee ground looking blood is a concern and should be checked out by a doctor right away. Your comment on foul smelling stools made me think of my problem from a few years back. Turns out I had SIBO, or small bowel bacterial overgrowth. This made me feel bloated, nauseous, with either constipation or diarrhea, along with varying colors of stool, all of which were foul smelling. If those symptoms are close to what you have been feeling, go see a gastroenterologist and ask for a hydrogen breath test. You blow up a little balloon on an empty stomach to give a baseline reading, then drink a small cup of a sweet glucose like liquid, then blow up another balloon every 15 minutes for a few hours. I think it was a total of 12 balloons. My results came back positive for SIBO, and I was prescribed an antibiotic which I took for two weeks, followed by a recommendation to take Align probiotics and eat yogurt or drink keifer. I feel much better now and have been taking Align ever since. My stool smells normal again too. Hope this helps.
I also have GERD, i am not sure if it means anything
