IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE: You bled from an internal hemorrhoid. If it was bright red blood, it is coming from the very end of your bowel. There is a network of veins internally and externally. Any irritation, hard stools, lots of straining might have triggered a vein there to leak a small amount of blood. If it becomes painful and continues to bleed, you need to see a doctor for an exam please.

Last night I had a bowel movement and after I wiped, there was blood on the tissue and the water was bright red. I don't feel any pain at all outside of the initial movement coming out. I'm 25. Should I be worried or was it just due to a large stool?
