Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.
it is possible that it is caused by fall if there was sacrum or coccigeal fracture or rectal wall injury. but also this bleeding ay be caused by some other conditions which are not related to this injury, so colonoscopy will reveal this scenario.
WIsh you good health. Regards
