When I finish using the bathroom and wipe myself I have recently been finding a small amount of blood and more worryingly something yellow, there is more of the yellow stuff than the blood more often than not. It seems to be some kind of fluid. I have no pain or discomfort related to this and otherwise I seem to be in perfect health.
I am not overly bothered about the blood as I have asked my doctor about this in the past and was told it was down to having too little fibre in my diet and so passing a stool and cause small tears in my anus. I am now worried such a tear might have gotten infected and hence the yellow stuff.
Any ideas?

I can think of a couple of causes such as anal fistula but it usually itches and bleeds too, hemorrhoids that also bleed, itch or hurt during BM but it could also be some kind of bacterial or parasitic gastrointestinal infection.
If it were a superficial infection like you suggested, I reckon it would itch but i guess you will need to see your doctor about this once again.
Hope you deal with this soon.
