I do not have trouble with my hemeroids. The blood is bright red. Should I be worried.

Hello Anon.
Thank you for writing!
Bright red blood may be seen only on toilet paper or in the toilet bowl after a bowel movement – not mixed freely with the bowel movement. This type of bleeding is usually caused by hemorrhoids (piles) or anal fissure. A hemorrhoid is a swollen vein inside the anus. A fissure is a split in the lining of the anus. Otherwise, you might have an internal issue. We cannot know. See your doctor (your regular doctor for a start) who can tell you with certainty what is going on. A foam cream can help but I believe it by prescription only. There are also over the counter options that your pharmacist can help you with.
