What should I do if my baby's poop is falling out of the anus?

Patient's question:

Today after the baby had a bowel movement, I noticed his anus was coming down while I was cleaning his buttocks. I hadn't noticed this before and had never seen it before. Could you please tell me what could be the reason for this? What precautions should I take in the future? Please let me know, thank you.

2) For breastfed babies, mothers should pay attention to adjusting their dietary structure, eating lightly, and mothers also need to drink more water.
3) Give the baby clockwise abdominal massage. Gently rub the baby's abdomen with the palm of your hand, centered around the navel, rotating from left to right.
