A member asked:

So i have stands of blood in my poop and blood on the toilet paper when i wipe. it's been happening for a while. what is it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Could be: Hard to tell without examination but likely hemorrhoid. Constipation and straining during bm will worsen. Topical or suppositories are effective.

A member asked:

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?
