Dry bloody stool in children

Children's stools are dry and very easy to be bloody, because babies do not use force in the process of defecation, they can only force it, which is particularly easy to cause anal fissures, and some blood will flow out when they are strong. The color of this blood is generally bright red and different from the blood from hemorrhoids. Mothers must give babies some bananas, honey and other foods in time. So what should children do if their stools are dry and bloody?

In children's cases, there is a high possibility of bleeding caused by local skin and mucous membrane damage to the anus due to dry stools and other reasons. In this case, it is recommended to pay attention to rest, avoid staying up late, do not eat spicy and irritating foods, eat less fried and barbecued foods, eat more vegetables, more fruits, eat more foods rich in crude fiber, wear loose cotton underwear, avoid sitting for long periods of time, and go to a regular hospital's gastroenterology department to clarify the situation and make targeted treatment.

It may be caused by irregular diet and other reasons. It is recommended to pay attention to rest, avoid staying up late, do not eat spicy and irritating food, eat less fried and barbecued food, eat less puffed food, eat more fruits, eat more vegetables, eat more foods rich in crude fiber, and take oral Bifidobacterium Triple Live Bacteria Powder for treatment. You can go to the gastroenterology department of a regular hospital to clarify the situation and make targeted treatment.

If the stool is too dry, there will be bleeding. You need to pay attention to care, eat light food, eat more fruits and vegetables, and massage the abdomen clockwise frequently. Also, use Simotang oral liquid for treatment, and use some Mommy Love for treatment and observe.

This situation may also be caused by irregular lifestyle and improper diet. It is best to let the child drink more water. If the mother is still breastfeeding, she should pay attention to her diet to avoid affecting the milk and eat less spicy food.

Blood in stool can be divided into two categories:

One type is blood mixed in the stool, and the other type is blood floating on the surface of the stool. If blood is mixed in the stool, it means that the blood comes from above the rectum, including: stomach, duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon. If the blood mixed in the stool is bright red, you should consider whether there is vitamin K deficiency (large amount of bleeding, which will lead to hemorrhagic anemia), intussusception (the child must have obvious abdominal pain and cry incessantly), polyps (there will be continuous small amounts of bleeding, which can only be confirmed by special intestinal angiography), and normal metabolic shedding of intestinal mucosa (the child does not have any abnormal symptoms and grows and develops normally), etc. If the blood mixed in the stool is brown, you should consider that the bleeding site is from the stomach. Because the gastric acid in the stomach can destroy the red blood cells, forming a brown color. üIf blood floats on the surface of the stool, it means that the bleeding is from the rectum or anus. The main causes are dry stools, stenosis of the anus or rectum, and mechanical damage caused during defecation. Since the stool has already formed in the upper part of the rectum, bleeding in the lower part of the rectum can only float on the surface of the stool. A digital rectal examination by a surgeon can help confirm the diagnosis. If the problem is mild, conservative treatment is used and it will generally improve on its own after a few months; if the problem is more serious, mechanical dilation may be used for treatment; only very serious cases require surgical treatment. But no matter which method is adopted, you should follow the doctor's advice. The babies mentioned above should not have any major problems. I think the blood in children's stool is related to the immaturity of the anal and rectal muscles and the normal metabolic shedding of the intestinal mucosa. If the child still has the same problem when he is 3 to 4 months old, he should be taken to the hospital's surgery department for examination to rule out problems such as intestinal polyps.
