What is wrong when you have blood coming out of your butt?

Answer:
If it is dark red blood that looks similar to coffee grounds, then you could have a gastrointestinal bleed.meaning a bleed somewhere in your intestines. This can be life-threatening and you should be seen by a physician immediately. If it is bright red blood, it is usually an irritation of some sort or perhaps a hemorrhoid. Bright red blood is usually not life-threatening unless you have copious amounts of it. If it is bright red but small in quantity, then you should relax, see if it goes away and call your physician if it doesn't.
