my partner is bleeding with bright blood from the mouth, he is vomiting blood may be half a pint today. He is tee-total he does NOT drink or take pills or drugs. He also told me he has blood in his stools. The blood he threw up today is bright red. He took ibuprofen for relief after throwing up non- stop from 12 noon today. I told him its the wrong thing to do. What can he do to diminish the bleeding? He had eaten bread and cheese before. i had noticed that when he eats hard boiled eggs he does not bleed.
Something to cut down the bleeding until he can go abroad to his family.
Grateful for any tips.

can it be high blood pressure? he gets fits of malignant high blood pressure but takes no medications 3 years now.
My 16 years old son is experiencing dark red blood coming out from his anus this 6:30 pm. today. At noon today after lunch, at 12:45 he felt a terrible pain in his upper stomach. I related this pain to his blood. He said he felt dizzy, headache and the pain almost fainted him but his strong will did not faint him inside the classroom. It lasted for almost 10 minutes.
This blood in the stool started when he was 14 years old. He says it happens to him almost every month. The last was in April. None in May, now it comes again in June.
I thought it was only a hemorrhoids, so i told him to drink enough water and eat papaya. I thought it stopped, but it didn’t. He just kept quiet whenever the bleeding comes in light red.
it’s only tonight that I feel frightened when he said the bleeding is almost monthly., that a blood clot came out from his anus before, that he almost fainted in his classroom because of the terrible pain in the upper stomach.
Any doctor out there? Please help me, I cant sleep tonight. Tomorrow I’ll be seeing our doctor but I’m NOT sure if he is available. He is always busy as he is a very good doctor wanted by everybody.
