Exam recommended: Rectal bleeding is often due to internal hemorrhoids (especially if you notice tissue protruding from the anus after a bowel movement) but there are other considerations (such as anal fissure, colorectal cancer or ploys or inflammatory bowel disease). See a colorectal surgeon who can recommend the appropriate evaluation and/or provide simple treatment for internal hemorrhoid bleeding.

See your doctor: Hemorrhoids can be a nuisance, but can also be indicative of more severe problems. See your doctor.
