Probably: Doe to retained clot and a small ulceration in the overlying skin. Usually this is not new fresh bleeding but the result of the body trying to dissolve the solid clot for reabsorption but as the clot is gradually liquified it leaks out through the ulceration. It is usually not dangerous but can cause a nuisance of spotting for 7-10 days or until the clot is gone.

Hemmorhoids: There are in office procedures like banding or drainage that can be done to manage the disease as well as non surgical things like behavioral and dietary modifications that can help. Best to see a local colorectal or general surgeon to help manage this condition
