It has happened to me twice in the last three weeks to have blood on my toilet paper when I go to the bathroom. What should I do?

It is possible that having blood on your toilet paper when you have a bowel movement could be caused by an anal fissure or a bleeding hemorrhoid. Before consulting a doctor to determine the exact cause of your symptoms, you can try using a cream like Preparation H™ to reduce inflammation and promote healing. If your condition does not improve within 7 days, it is important to seek medical advice.
