Brief Answer:
need more clarification
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have read your query. I need some more clarification here.
Did you confirm the site of bleeding? - is it from the vaginal opening/anal opening/ or urethral or urinary opening? Please recheck again or examine yourself and find out where exactly you are bleeding from.
The management is different for all these. You have also mentioned about blood drops with clots. We need to know the exact site of bleeding to go ahead with the treatment.
Please let me know in detail about the concern.
Awaiting your response.

Anal bleeding
Brief Answer:
bleeding Hemorrhoid is more likely
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the clarification. It is more likely to be an actively bleeding Hemorrhoid. You must use anti-hemorrhoidal ointments/creams or anal suppository that seal the bleeding vessels to stop further bleeding.
I usually prescribe my patients with Anovate cream three times a day until 2 days after the bleeding stops. It contains phenylephrine. You could ask for such creams that are available over the counter or request your doctor for a prescription of the same.
Permanent remedy is Hemorrhoidectomy or surgical removal of the same.
Please discuss about these options with your primary care physician.
Get well soon.
