What Causes Blood Traces After Bowel Movement?

Hi, I just used the restroom and took a #2. After doing that, I noticed that there was light pink liquid in the toilet with it (blood?) could this be dangerous? I've had problems recently with being constipated, and now I use the restroom more often so I thought that everything had been okay, until now.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the constipation then it could be due to that only but it is the temporary condition even left doubt because it may not be a blood but could be the food particles, for confirmation stool examination is must, but in absence of symptoms it is nothing to worry hope this information helps.
