I noticed a minute ago that when done in the bathroom there was blood on the paper. wondering if it could be from "hard stool" or something else?

Blood on TP: At the age of 22, a small amount of blood on the toilet paper is usually insignificant. Unless you have some previous history of colon problems or a family history of colon cancer, there is no reason to suspect anything that would be of any concern. Eat a lot of fiber, and if the bleeding becomes persistent or more severe, contact your doctor.
