Blood on rectal swab: Yes. Something is amiss there. May be minor, may be not so minor. Be checked.

Officially test: It is always best when you have a concern about any STD to get formally tested. Males and females who are sexually active with different partners or a new partner should not be afraid to use a condom, avoid anal sex and obtain each others STD status before starting or continuing relations. I would recommend you get an official test and your MD can also evaluate any rectal bleeding or lesion.
