General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
The symptoms of blood on stool, particularly on constipation and burning at anus only indicate that you may be suffering from fissure-in-ano wherein you get a small cut-wound at the anal verge due to the hard stool.
I would advise you the following in such a situation:
Laxatives and stool softener to have soft stools.
Sitz bath before and after passing stool.
High fiber diet and plenty of oral fluids.
Avoid the foods and beverages that you know cause constipation.
Avoid stress and anxiety.
Consult a Genera surgeon for per-rectal examination, ano-proctoscopy and get treated further as the needs may be.
I find this answer helpful
