HI
Thanks for posting your query .
Bleeding per rectum could be due to Haemorrhoids ( piles ) , Some growth in your rectum or colon , Infection of colon . It needs to be evaluated and diagnosed else persistent bleeding will make you anaemic and weak .
I advise you to go for Colonoscopy which will detect what is wrong with your Colon . Kindly get it as soon as possible . Let me know what the report comes as .
