I’ve been bleeding during hard or big BMs since I was in elementary school (14 years or so). Twice in the past 3 years though the bleeding has been enough to drip into the toilette. I don’t have hemorrhoids; it never hurts and the blood it bright red. I’m not really too worried about it because it has been so long (I thought it was normal for quite a while) and it isn’t causing me any pain. Am I right to think it’s just a fissure? Are there any side effects to not doing anything about it?

about a month back i felt it but it vanished in two days. but recently i had upset stomach and had to use toilet for more than thrice a day for 2 to 3 days now. although my stool is not watery and i do not have to push hard, i noticed after passing stool there is small pain in the tail (i dunno know how to describe) its behind anus and where the spinal cord ends. when i checked it in the mirror i saw the skin is torn about an inch lengthwise.
i’ven’t checked bleeding in the toilet but anus doesn’t pain. due to the pain in the tail area i can’t sit now. and now that i have a doubt that it could be piles, i’m getting worried more.
pls suggest what is it. is it hemorrhoids or something else. if yes, what is the treatment for it. which specialist doc should i visit for this. my father had the problem of hemorrhoids and he even used to see blood in the stool.
i’m confused and worried. pls answer.
i’m 32 and do not have any disease. there is no pain while passing the stool. it’s just that i had used the toilet for more than 3 times a day.
