For last couple weeks, i've notice a little blood on my toilet paper after i poop, every now and then. hurts a bit to poop. whats wrong? emergency?

Blood: Two main causes for small amount of blood with painful bowel movement… anal fissure or external hemorrhoid. Not an emergency, but see a doctor to make certain of the diagnosis. Until bake to see one, increase fiber and water in diet to soften stool and avoid straining.
