Hello, my son is two weeks old. For a while, he had blood in his stool, bright red.

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on your symptoms, it is likely hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids are soft venous clumps formed by the expansion and tortuosity of the venous plexus at the lower end of the rectum, anal canal, and anal margin, and are related to constipation, prolonged sitting, and irritation from spicy foods. Medication recommendations include oral levofloxacin, metronidazole, and Huaijiao pills. Topically, potassium permanganate solution can be used for cleaning. In severe cases, surgical treatment may be necessary. Surgical treatment generally does not recur. It is recommended to avoid spicy and irritating foods, quit smoking and alcohol, consume more vegetables and fruits, and maintain regular bowel movements.
