Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

To rule out other cause you have to consult gastroenterologists once. If bloody diarrhea is not much bothering you then you can wait.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
