Go to hospital: Wear a mask. Call the hospital before going there so that they may have the correct arrangement for you. Bleeding is not a trivial matter, get evaluated and treated. Wish you good health!

Anal bleeding: For anal bleeding you should see a primary care physician and if recommended a colorectal surgeon. The primary care can do the initial evaluation to find any systemic causes for the bleeding and if needed for anoscopy or colonoscopy he can refer you to a specialist. Would definitely recommend against going to the hospital unless it is fresh continuous bleeding.
