This might be a condition called Anal Fissure usually caused by constipation and straining while passing stool.This needs proper treatment.

You likely have a chronic anal fissure due to constipation post-C-section.
What to Do?
✔ Sitz bath (warm water soak) 2-3 times daily
✔ Lignocaine ointment (Lox 2%) for pain relief
✔ Stool softener (Duphalac/Lactulose) to prevent straining
✔ High-fiber diet + water for smooth bowel movements
✔ Anti-fissure cream (Nitroglycerin 0.2%/Diltiazem 2%) to heal
If bleeding persists, consult a doctor. Not serious but needs care.
