Possible reasons.: Rectal bleeding can be due to hemorrhoids, fissures, fistula, cancer, abrasion from wiping, or GI inflammation or infection. If this is more than a one time occurrence, get it checked out medically.

Hemorrhoids: The most common reason would be hemorrhoids. However, more serious conditions can also have this warning sign. It's best to have your healthcare provider check.
