Hi

Hope to help! This could be an internal hemorrhoid. Is there any pain? Does this happen only after you use the restroom? Is the blood fresh red or black? These are questions i was asked. Went to colonoscopy and endoscopy. Piece of cake. Don't allow anyone to scare you. Is there a history f cancer in your family? My fathe died from Colon cancer last year.This also could be a small tear or something very minor. It could be strain from not enough fiber in oyur diet, not drinking enough water. Its best to have this checked out by a physican. Best to be safe than sorry! Good Luck!

I've been bleeding off and on for years from hemorroids. I've had this discussion with other people, men and woman and they have these symptoms too. Could be from staining too much. To put your mind at ease, go see your doctor.
