Hello,
1) You should first consult general surgeon to find source of bleeding.
2) Bleeding might occur from fibrous (scar) tissue (due to radiation) in region of anal canal when hard stool cause some minor damage to wall of anal canal
3) You should do life-style and diet modification in addition to medicine support to prevent constipation.
4) Other differential diagnosis is anal fissure but all these conditions can be confirmed with proctoscopy
