    Hi, I had anal fissures, after having had constipation. Which meant I had a bit of bright red blood everytime I went. I used Sudacrem ointment to heal it.

    Is it bright red? If so, it may just be a fissure which is just a small tear common with IBS.

    Do not delay go and see your doctor immediately. You may have hemorrhoids but I would not take any chances with any sign of blood

      My brother died of bowel cancer and ignored several signs for a long time. Please go and make sure, no one can diagnose with certainty on here
