Seriously - go to the doctor. You think they haven't seen an ass before?
If you're not having rectal pain you're probably not cut, might be hemorrhoids,
BUT it could also be something more serious like Proctitis, Ulcerative Colitus, IBS or even cancer.
People are literally 'dying of embarassment' because they won't go to the doc's about rectal bleeding. Most cancers in this area respond well to treatment, but early detection is a huge factor in this.
Yes, this happened to me - fortunately it was Proctitis which pretty much insta-responded to treatment.
Also standing ftw - helped with the early detection of bleeding, since I could see my were stools streaked with blood long before it started to show on the toilet paper.
