Why do babies' stools contain red blood cells

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if your baby has red blood cells in their stool, it may be due to bleeding or inflammation in the intestines. You can have an anal examination to check for anal fissures or hemorrhoids. Check if the bowel sounds are normal, and see if there is diarrhea to rule out intestinal inflammation or dysentery. You can drink more water, avoid getting cold, and eat a light diet. Once the diagnosis is clear, treatment can be administered.
