What Causes Slight Blood Discharge After Bowel Movement?
Hi, for about the past 2 days, every time I have a bowel movement and wipe, there is a very light streak of blood on the tissue. I was wondering what was causing that? I see no blood in the stool, nor is it dark black. I am worried maybe I have a hemorrhoid but I could not imagine I do. Thanks so much.

Hello,
Hemorrhoids are possibility. Proctoscopy is the examination required. Local therapy by a surgeon is all required mostly. It is a day care procedure.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. R Vashisht
