Rectal bleeding at 15 years old, anything to worry about?

[1488jacob]

hi there,
about 2 years ago, i went to toilet for bowel movement and there was blood in my stool
i am a 15 boy now. then like 3 months ago, i had a bit of blood on surface of stool and i bit on the tissue, bright red, for like 3 movements
then i just had another bowel movement and there was a bit of blood on the tissure
it is not frequent and not a lot of pain
i dont think it is anything seriuos but i need help
3 months ago when it happened, i took stool softners and put antiseptic skin cream around the area and it seemed to stop
i think it could just be fissures but not sure
please help me
thanks

Rectal bleeding is never normal and should always be investigated.  At your age the causes are likely to be minor - but do visit your doctor.

For more information typs in rectal bleeding to google/yahoo etc and click on to one of the many posts that elaborate on causes/symptoms/treatments etc

sure sounds like hemmoroids (hemorrhoids), u need to see a dr to eliminate other possibilities and, if it is hemmoroids (hemorrhoids) he can advise you. I am just now recovering from hemmoroidectomy, dont wait get help early.

thanks for help
im dont think it is hemmoroids (hemorrhoids) because at the last stool, i did have constipation
i took stoll softners and used vasoline and it is better now,
if it gets worse i will consider doctor but i dont have any other symtoms
