Answers:
You probably have hemorrhoids, or fissures!. Hemorrhoids are are swollen blood vessels caused by straining on the toilet too long/hard!. They may burst which causes the bleeding!. And fissures are cuts inside of your rectum caused by the stretching of the anal sphincter (opening)!. I would use a suppository such as Glycerin, or a stool softener such as Colace!. If you go to the doctor, they can prescribe either one for you!. It's nothing to be freaked out about, it's a common occurrence with constipation!. I would increase the fiber in my diet!. Increasing raw fruits and veggies helps as well!. Avoid constipation until the problem stops!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Could be an anal fissure!. Your anus is rather fragile, and something like passing a hard bowel movement can rupture it!. If it's just a little bit of blood, this is probably what it is, and it's nothing to worry about!. I had one of those myself recently; they usually heal in a day or two!.

You also might want to talk to your mom and/or doctor about it, especially if there's blood in the BM itself, since they'd probably know better what it is; and while it's probably nothing to worry about, it'll be good to know if it is before it gets out of hand, eh!? :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

You could be dealing with something called hemorrhoids which can occur as a result of pushing during a bowel movement such as if one is constipated (an example only)!.

I would recommend letting your mom know what's going on as well so that she can help you keep an eye on the situation!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
