I'm almost ashamed to ask but what's "explained rectal bleeding"? An unusually large/solid movement causing direct damage?

It's possible to swallow something indigestible that then comes out in poop - sometimes this could cause bleeding. If you have anything inserted in your anus for any reason this could also cause bleeding.

If someone stabbed you in the rectum, the bleeding is explained. You should still probably get it looked at.
