Brief Answer:
Could be due to piles or hemorrhoids

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

There can be a number of causes of blood with stool. The first question I need to ask you is whether you have associated constipation. Constipation can frequently precipitate hemorrhoids or piles which could be associated with extreme pain and bleeding. If that is the case, you need to visit a surgeon and get yourself examined since such a condition is often associated with fissure. Sitz bath should provide relief. Plenty of dietary fibers need to be taken. Also discuss with your doctor about significance of taking Daflon tablet.

If that is not the case, please revert back with further details and I would guide you further.
