I think, it's hemorrhoids, as u have previous history also. You should undergo a digital rectal examination or using a proctoscope a doctor could diagnose your condition clinically and if u get diagnosed with it, according to grade of hemorrhoids you will be given appropriate treatment. As of milder hemorrhoids resolve by themselves. Treating your anemia at the same time is a good decision.
