Is this a hemorrhoid?
When I go to the bathroom and if the stool is large it hurts a little and itches and there is a small amount of blood on the toilet paper. After it itches. It seems like when I don’t strain they go away for a week and its fine on the toilet then come back a week later. My mother said it sounds like a hemorrhoid and not to worry I was just wondering if that might be the case
No I have no stomach problems at all and its bright blood

there are many factors that can cause that. It might be a hemorroid, but if you are having some kind of stomach problems, the blood might not be coming from ur anus.. it might be coming from other parts of the intestines, u might want to get a colonoscopy, they way to know when blood is bad is the lighter it is the better. because is fresh blood.. the darker ,the deeper in the stomach. but it probably is a hemorroids.

yeah it could be..
In most cases so do bleed alittle but really a hemorrhoid is the vain swelling up..
So if they get bad it usually last longer.
