Is it a hemmie?

I have not had any symptoms for quite some time now, but noticed bright red blood on my toilet tissue today when I wiped. I had a bit of a harder time pooing this morning (a bit of constipation), but noticed no blood in the stool. Could this be a hemorrhoid or am I throwing myself back into a flare? I have had no other symptoms other than itching around my anus.

Sorry for the details, can anyone give me some perspective of this?

Blood in your stool could be caused by straining when you poop, a hemmie, a tear in your rectum from insertion of a suppository/enema, a fissure, a fistula, the start of a uc flareup, or cancer. It could be many things. If it only happened once then I would not worry. However, if it happens multiple times you might need to see your GI and have him/her give you an examination (often an in-office flex-sigmoidoscopy).

itching!
ahhh

worst feeling.
I suggest picking up some baby wipes and keeping things super clean back there while this possible hemmie is trying to rear its ugly head.
You can always pop a mirror down there or feel around and sure nothing external is happening.

Poop easy :)
