A member asked:
Is small amounts of bright red blood from a confirmed haemorrhoid anything to worry about? thanks.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: If it is less than 1 tsp and it stops. Use warm sitz baths and glycerine compresses (for example, Tucks) to help to relieve any inflammation, and see your provider if it continues. Good luck Kelly.
