Not sure how long I have had this problem because I do know that for several years I have had some occasional spotting of blood after a BM, but nothing that concerned me because I never had pain. I just always thought it was from taking too many aspirin/pain relievers.
This past March is when I had extreme pain and alot of blood with a BM...along with spasms that were so bad that I could not stand or walk. The spasms lasted for several weeks. The only time I had bleeding was with the original tear in March and it didn't happen again until I had a case of diarrhea and then I bled for about 3 days, which terrified me. Now everytime I have a BM I am scared to death to look and see if there is blood. Not that the sight of blood scares me, but blood coming out of my butt scares the crap out of me.
