spot bleeding from skin tag or hemorhoid?

I have always had this very small what I think is like a skin tag or small hemorrhoid right next to my anus. Through all my scopes and surgeries the doctors have never mentioned it. Over the weekend I was pooping more than usual due to what I was eating and ran out of good soft toilet paper. So as you can imagine I really irritated my butthole. I was getting some spotted bright red blood on toilet paper at that area from the irritation I am guessing. Its a little sore but not too bad. I have been putting hemorrhoid cream on it for past few days and it is less angry but still am getting a very small dot of bright red blood on paper from that area still. What else can I do or put on it to help it heal up quicker? I don't have a bath so cant do a sitz bath, only have a shower. should I continue with the same cream or maybe use a Neosporin for a few days? You guys don't think its anything else to be concerned about do you? Someone mentioned a fistula maybe but does that sound like this? its just a small dot of bright red blood on the toilet paper only when I blot after going to bathroom.

ok, I was also on Cipro for 10 days up until 2 days ago as well, I was able to get my phone camera back there and I can see the little hemorrhoid next to the anus, its maybe a half size of pencil eraser. The thing I did notice more is my area an inch or two from the butthole outward is red. not angry red but not happy red. I am thinking maybe from all the hemrhoid cream and the Cipro maybe I have a fungal issue now?? I have Nystatin powder still from my stoma days, should I dust it on back there a few times a day? the roid is not causing a lot of pain just pinches a little when I try to clean up after going poop. trying to use handheld bidet and blot dry to see if it helps.
