Hello,
Thanks for choosingHCM for your query,
While passing stools in constipation,Mucosa is eroded due to over straining,
Over straining causes rectal muscles to sweel up and burst leading to blood in stool.
Just taking fibres will not help
Take lactulose 10ml once daily every day before going to sleep.
this will soften your stools and prevent any further bleed.
It will also help the already ruptured mucosa to heal up.

most likely tissue like substance is mucosal layer,
I would suggest you to go for proctoscopic examination of rectum a digital examination to rule out possibilities of hemorrhoid should also be done
regards
