Does A Hemorrhoid Bleed Post Application Of Ointment?

My son has a hemorrhoid and we went to the dr yesterday and he was prescribed an ointment. Up until that point it had not bled. he called me today to tell me that when he applied the ointment, it bled and that he put a piece of tissue near his anus in case the bleeding continued and said he felt a gush of blood later and that the tissue had a lot of blood on there. Should I take him to the er for this or is it normal for it to bleed?
