Why do children have blood in their stool?

Many children have some hemorrhoid problems, but blood in the stool is not a sign of hemorrhoids. Therefore, many parents are worried about this issue and are confused about their children's health. So let's ask experts to introduce this issue to ensure that children can grow up happily and healthily.

If the blood is mixed with the stool and there are only streaks of blood and it only occurs occasionally, then there is no need to worry too much. It is unlikely to be hemorrhoids, but most likely bleeding from the rectal mucosa. This situation is often seen in pediatrics.

It is recommended to closely monitor the child's condition. Give her more warm water, avoid high-calorie foods, and eat more green leafy vegetables and fruits. You can eat blanched bananas half an hour after a meal to moisten the intestines and promote bowel movements. You can also choose to drink some honey water. If the child still experiences this condition frequently, it would be better to seek medical attention promptly.

Children with dry stools need to pay attention to their diet. Excessive protein intake, calcium and zinc supplements, too much refined food, and medication (especially antibiotics) can also cause dry stools. Pay attention to eating more green vegetables and fruit juice (you can give some orange juice, pear juice or carrot juice). It is recommended to take golden bifidobacteria factor with warm water in the morning to increase the number of bifidobacteria in the intestine to prevent constipation. The effect is very good.

Children of different ages have different reasons for constipation. It is best to go to the hospital for a check-up. It is more appropriate to carry out causal treatment after finding the cause. In addition, arrange the child's life more regularly, let the child eat more vegetables, fruits, drink more water and eat more fat foods. If fed with milk powder, it is best to choose milk powder that is more breast milk-like and easy to digest. The Parents' Choice formula I drink tastes close to breast milk, and my baby rarely suffers from constipation due to getting angry. The rich prebiotic ingredients in it can also help the baby digest. You can also give your baby a clockwise abdominal massage, gently rub the baby's abdomen with your palm, rub from left to right with the navel as the center, massage 10 times, rest for 5 minutes, massage again 10 times, and repeat 3 times. If the discomfort does not subside after many days, you can use a pediatric suppository.

The above is what experts introduced about the problem of bloody stools in children. Once the child has this problem, parents must promptly counsel the child's psychology, ensure a regular lifestyle, and it is particularly important to ensure the child's treatment to avoid worsening of the disease. Finally, I wish the child a speedy recovery.
