hey, i had this problem too and was SO scared but then found out what the problem was. Do you find you are have to strain hard sometimes? the bright red blood on toilet paper and in bowl means its fresh, which means its coming from the anus area, which means, you have torn a lil skin from pushing too hard. Relax,. its nothing serious and will eventually heal up. You will find when u gotta strain a lil hard u will get it again. Nothing to be afraid of my friend. You dont even have to be constipated for this to happen,. straining when pushing it out a lil hard can cause it. also stool on the hard sire can slice up the sensitive and delicate skin near the anus easy too.
