what do you do about a bleeding sphynxter? i went #2 today and found a surprising amount of blood on top of my stool. i know it didnt come from inside my intestines because when i wiped there was blood and it just kept coming. untill it signifigantly slowed down.

this may seem like a joke but im really asking....
im a 21 year old male

If it is a red blood not dark like old blood it might be hemorrhoids. is this a possibility? Is it bleeding or just spoting?
Did you strain when you had a movement. Sound like it might be a hemorrhoid. If it s a fresh blood and not black or dark it's most likley and inside or even an outside hemorrhoids. No to worry if it is a fresh blood. But if it keeps up, get it checked.
