See a doctor: You may have just caused some local trauma by having hard stools ( constipation), or by wiping too vigorously, causing a fissure. That will heal with gentle wiping and or changing up you diet to include more fiber, fruits and water. BUT, if there is pain with passing stool and blood, a doctor should examine the area and make sure it’s not a hemorrhoid or possibly something more serious

Agree with Dr. G: Increase your intake of fiber and water. You may take a fiber laxative like Metamucil and drink enough water daily so that your urine is colorless. For the long term you may try to increase your intake of fiber foods. Consult this site for fiber foods. http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/high-fiber-foods/art-20050948
