Answer
Hello! If it is fresh blood at the end of each bowel movement, then it is likely that you have hemorrhoids or anal lacerations and also have not ruled out other diseases such as bleeding polyps, rectal tumors, anus.
However, to be able to accurately diagnose the condition of blood in the stool, the doctor recommends that you visit a specialist in Gastroenterology - Hospital under Vinmec Health System for advice on testing and immediate treatment.
