I am 16 years old, male, 60 lbs, 5' 6" in height..

I have been suffering from bleeding after i defecate. there are no traces of blood in my feces. it only comes out after i poop.. i dont have any abdominal pain, diarrhea, or any other "symptoms", just blood after i poop.. the blood volume i think is not much maybe 4ml i think. this has been happening for 3 weeks now, what might be my problem..

If the blood is bright red and NOT mixed in with the feces, you are looking at piles or hemmoroids.  You may consider a Colonoscopy to check for polyps as in my experience the two, though not clinically connected , may be observed in this setting together. Your Dr. will probably agree.

It could be something as simple as internal hemorrhoids.  Have your doc check it out.
Have you had a recent bout with hard stools by any chance?
