Is it normal to bleed a little bit from your anus after pooping?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rectal bleeding: Bleeding is not normal. Are you constipated/do you strain? If so you may have hemorrhoids of an anal fissure. Internal hemorrhoids are usually painless, fissures usually hurt. Try stool softeners and increase your water consumption. If the problem persists you may need further evaluation.
