Anal fissure: Infants/kids that pass hard/bulky or stools that come out fast can open a crack in the skin of their outlet (ANUS) which will leave blood on the outside of the stool.It can self heal over time but it helps if their stools are softer.Avoiding constipating agents like bananas/dry cereal/appplesause and using softeners like apple juice/prune juice/etc can help.
