How to deal with blood dripping after a 11-month-old baby's bowel movement?

Patient's question:

Yesterday, I didn't have a bowel movement. Today, after having a bowel movement, there was blood. There was no crack in the anus, but when I wiped with a wet wipe, there was blood.
Past treatment history and effectiveness: No specific treatment was sought. What is the cause and how should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

The baby's behavior can be caused by many different situations. The most likely cause is hemorrhoids, which can cause blood in the stool. Due to little attention to daily life, such as being unable to have normal bowel movements every day, eating too few fruits, leading to dry stools, and being prone to getting hot easily, it can result in hemorrhoids. For a child of this age, it's best to go to the hospital to consult a doctor for medication guidance and avoid using medication indiscriminately.
