Hemorrhoid Banding Question

About 2 weeks ago, i had a hemorrhoid banding, and on the 11th, i started having small amounts of bleeding, with every stool passing. The past few days later.... i'll still have small amounts of blood in my stool. I'm thinking the banded Hemorrhoid fell off a week ago... so my question is... how long will i continue to get bleeding.

Whenever i google it, it says 7 - 10 days, but I don't know what to think.... am i over thinking this... or should i contact my surgeon?

I also understand the banded wound, is internal, so no air gets to it... but I don't know... I'm just concerned for my health...

I'm actually afraid to go out and work, and stuff.... cuz i don't want the wound to get ripped off again.... any help would greatly be appreciated.....
