I have bleeding when I use the bathroom (p00p) . its bright red. no pain . I ve had this before and it comes and goes. it is mostly just after using the toilet. my wife wants me to go to the emergency room with this but I think I can wait to see if it goes away in a few days. I have been having hard stools.what should I do?

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to hemorrhoids.
They usually are triggered by constipation.
I suggest using a stool softener.
I also suggest using a cream for local application such as Preparation H.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
