Brief Answer:
NO, for now monitor only!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this blood that you noticed. I have reviewed your information fully and the onset of symptoms doesn’t suggest this is something to be too worried about. Simply drying the skin with a towel can cause trauma and bleeding which may explain why you observe this blood. If this happened before you too the shower, he blood would have been washed away and no longer visible after drying yourself after the shower.

For now, I recommend you monitor only and only seek further medical care if something else comes up. I am certain this will regress spontaneously. Please, do not nurse any further fears that this blood could have come from the anus after the straining during stool at this time unless more information suggest so.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
