I am a 53-year-old male in good health, except for occasional anxiety. I sometimes see red objects in my bowel movements that look like undigested food, such as onions or pepperoni. I have had two colonoscopies in the past four years, both showing small, non-cancerous polyps, and I regularly see a proctologist for hemorrhoids. I have attached a photo of a recent bowel movement with a red object. Is this normal, and should I be concerned?

I work on a marine towing vessel and share a shower and toilet with someone who I think has Hepatitis C. I'm concerned about the risk of contracting the virus from him, especially since I have athlete's foot and think I have open areas on my feet that could be vulnerable to infection or virus entry. Additionally, I've been feeling tired lately, and I'm not sure if it's related. What precautions should I take, and what are the risks of contracting Hepatitis C in this scenario?
