See your doctor: You need a colonoscopy. Normal mucosa does not simply bleed. You need to make sure there is not a polyp or other lesion that is causing this.

Ask your doctor: it would be foolish to take the advice of someone who does not know the details of your case, especially on such an important question. Confer with your doctor.
