Patient's question:
At one year old, the baby has a swollen ring around the anus after defecating. In the afternoon, they didn't defecate much, but in the evening, they did, and there was some swelling around the anus, which subsided after a while. What could be the reason? They are also a bit crying.Doctor's answer:
If the baby has dry bowel movements, straining during defecation may cause anal edema. It may also stretch the anus, leading to anal fissures again. First, stabilize her bowel movements. If she has stool that won't come out, use a glycerin suppository to help her have a bowel movement. Encourage her to eat more vegetables and fruits and drink more water, as this helps maintain soft and smooth bowel movements. Locally, you can apply Bear Gall Prolift Ointment and use an anal suppository to reduce swelling and relieve pain.
