Could this be colon cancer

Could this be colon cancer?
I just took a crap, and my crap kinda on the flat side. Not really like ribbon like crap, but flatter than it should be. I also found random areas with light red. I'm only 20 years, and I don't have any other symtoms of colon cancer.

The red could be from food you have eaten. If there is bright red blood in your faeces you could have something as simple as a haemmorhoid or an anal fissure (a crack in the anus) But, blood in the faeces should never go ignored. See a doctor and they can rule out any more serious condition.

problems will be best solved if you are investigated by colonoscopy. the result of this investigation will clearely tell you a straight answer to your type of questions !

I'd go to a doctor as soon as possible if it continues. Otherwise it probably was either something you ate, a broken vessel, or possibly some other irritation of the anus or rectum. Don't wait too long, but watch it for a bit and see if there is a pattern emerging. Tip: If it is bright red, the blood is coming from close to your anus. If it is dark brown to black, it's further up inside. If it continues, get medical attention promptly.
