“Blood After Using the Bathroom”
Hello,
Today i was on the toilet and saw blood coming out from my buttocks, but only little blood. I wipe it off and then it stopped. Should i be concerned about it?

Hello, There are several reasons why you could have seen that blood, that may or may not be concerning. We would suggest that you see someone if it happens again or if you have further concerns, Thank you
Time for colonoscopy.
It might be a hemorrhoid or anal fissure. Usually not a cause for concern but should be worked up especially if you have any anemia not explained by menstruation.
