Hard to know: This can represent different issues ranging from just irritation to yeast rash to strap A proctitis. I would have it evaluated if mild local care does not improve it.

Can wiping too hard cause anal irritation and even blood? I tend to wipe a bit too hard and sometimes there are little red dots on toilet paper when I wipe. It feels as if there's a cut outside my anus, but I'm not sure?
