What is the reason for blood in the stool and incomplete defecation in a child over 3 years old?

Patient's question:

A child over 3 years old has blood in their stool, and the stool is not dry. A few months ago, the child also had blood in their stool when the stool was very dry, and the local doctor said it was a small crack in the anus with some broken skin, which then healed after a few days. Now, several months later, the child has blood in their stool again, and this time the stool is not dry. Last night, the child ate several jujubes and some spicy powder.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, the current condition of the child is mainly considered to be a manifestation caused by gastrointestinal dysfunction. In this case, regarding the current symptoms, I suggest it is necessary to take appropriate probiotic preparations, such as Bifidobacterium triple live capsules, for symptomatic treatment and to try adjusting for a period of time. Additionally, be mindful not to eat spicy or irritating foods.
