Dr. Johnny Green answered

Specializes in Colon and Rectal Surgery

See your doctor: You did not mention how much blood you are seeing and if you are having any anal/rectal pain but persistent rectal bleeding or blood in the stool should be evaluated. It might just be hemorrhoids but could be an inflammatory problem like colitis or a tumor.

Dr Duvivier agreed
