Blood stain on the toilet paper (stool). Should I be worried?

If you notice blood on the toilet paper after wiping, it could be a sign of a small tear around the anus. This is often caused by constipation. You can try using a product like Preparation H™ to help heal the tear and stop the bleeding. It's also important to prevent constipation by continuing to take a laxative as recommended. However, if you are concerned about the blood, it is always best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and guidance.
