In the first instance, it is better to stop the practice of kapalabhati and consult with your physician for treatment of constipation and bleeding. 

Maybe you have done excessive generating a lot of heat, you may consider doing cooling pranayama (if it is summer season) like sheetali or sheetkari pranayamas.

Also check with your clinical nutritionist for dietary modification.

However, once you resolve the issue, always consider the following general things during the practice of Kapalabhati:

  • Hydrate yourself and add fibre/roughage in your diet. 
  • Do not over-do the practice of kapalabhati in the greed of getting quicker results
  • In the morning, practice kapalabhati only after attending to natural calls i.e. emptying your bowels.
