Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

It looks like this blood is due to piles only. That usually aggravates with constipation and oily and spicy foods.

I advise you to do the following:

Avoid constipation in the future.
Increase water and fiber intake.
Tablet Trenaxa 500 mg (Tranexamic acid) (anti-fibrinolytics) is to be taken twice daily after meals.
Tablet Daflon 500 mg (vitamin and mineral supplement) twice daily after meals.
Syrup Duphalac 30 ml (laxative) to be taken at bedtime with a glass of water for five days.

Kindly consult a specialist doctor, talk with them, and take medications with their consent.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
