If by thin looking poop you mean how big around it is compared to normal, then yes she probably needs them expressed. The red bump is probably the gland possibly about to rupture so I would not put off getting her to a vet in the A.M. as it is very painful. I always know when mine need their anals expressed as the poops do thin out as you described.
