Hi welcome to HCM...

After operation constipation can remain for sometime because of paresis (less bowel movement )...

Now you have bowel movement with pain and blood in stool...

So your detail history regarding drugs intake and other should be taken .
If taking aspirin (as done bypass surgery )than it can lead bleeding as well if high dose there ...

Your anal examination has to be done along with proctoscopy ....
If piles , fissure etc like cause present than also bleeding can occur ...

Take care

According to cause treatment given....

Advise : consult surgeon for examination....
