Hemorrhoids Sign Of Cancer

My father is passing blood….?
what do you think it could be? he has been passing blood when he goes to the restroom for a number two (sorry tmi). What could this be? I am sooo worried about him. Could this be signs of colon cancer or does he have a busted hemorrhoid? He is only 46 years old, I’;, not sure if there is colon cancer in the family or not.
Please no rude comments, he does have an appointment Friday with his doc.Thanks in advance for your answers. God bless you all.
Thanks to everyone for their great answers I really really appreciate your honesty and kindness. God bless everyone.
Glad to see he has an appointment. Is it just a little blood on the paper or like is the water red? There is a very big difference between the 2. Many people have bleeding and dont have cancer, but with cancer it is almost always in the picture. It could also be from an infection. They will probably order a colonoscopy which is not the most pleasant thing, but necessary to see what is going on inside. By all means if he starts have a huge amount of bleeding or becomes very weak take him to the ER.
