10 weeks post birth and bleeding

Hello, I’m really sorry if this is TMI but I’m feeling worried about my post part in bleeding.
I had a very fast vaginal delivery 10 weeks ago with a second degree tear. This seemed to be healing fine and isn’t uncomfortable.
My post birth bleeding stopped at 7 weeks but I’ve just been to the toilet and have more fresh, red blood.
This isn’t a period, it started with a bit of spotting and is now very red with lots of blood after I’ve just had a poo (I’m sorry).
Could it be my tear?
I’ve tried to have a look but can’t really work out what I’m looking at. There’s just lots of red blood inside.
It’s Saturday today so no chance of a GP appointment. What should I do? Has anyone experienced similar?
