Many possible reason: Rectal bleeding is never normal. The most common cause of painless rectal bleeding is internal hemorrhoids but rectal polyps and cancer can also bleed "a little" and do not cause pain until last stages. This should be checked out. See your doctor, a gastroenterologist or a surgeon to ensure the cause is not serious.
