Noticed Blood After Wiping. Could It Be Hemorrhoids? How Long It Takes To Cure?

Welcome to XXXXXXX forum.
Do you have some mass palpable at anus?
With the available described details, there could be possibility of thrombosed hemorrhoids or anal fissure.
Pain at anus along with bleeding suggests the diagnosis.
There appears to be high possibility of anal fissure, precipitated by persisting constipation.
You should consult with XXXXXXX medicine specialist/ general surgeon and should go for thorough check up.
You should go for per rectal examination also.
Formation at scab at bleeding site may cause stoppage of bleeding.
Persistent or recurrent constipation may again cause bleeding by removing scab.
Treatment of anal fissure and hemorrhoids differ and treatment depends on exact diagnosis.
Meanwhile, you should take plenty of water along with laxative containing isapgula and lactitol. Laxative helps in relieving constipation and cure of local wound.
You should also apply lignocaine ointment along with diltiazem.
You should also perform hot sitz bath; put lukewarm water in a tub and sit in it for 15-20 minutes twice in a day. This helps in relaxation of anal sphincters.
Hope that helps.
Let me know your other query.
Take care,

All the best,
