What Causes Rectal Bleeding After Anal Sex?

Last night I had anal sex without protection. I am a guy. Straight away I checked myself there wasn t any skin cuts or wounds inside rectum. But this morning when I tried to clean myself in washroom I guess I must have accidentally scratched rectal later. I noticed fresh blood. I am worried I must have got myself anal fissure.

Hello,

Bleeding from the anal canal after having anal sex could be due to physical trauma. There is less likelihood of anal fissures since anal fissures are quite painful.

I suggest you consult a surgeon for clinical assessment of the anal canal.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
