What is the reason for blood in the stool of a 1.5-year-old baby?

Patient's question:

I am 34 years old. Recently, I don't know why I always feel nauseous and like throwing up. My stomach has a dull ache, and sometimes I have symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux. I went to the hospital, and it got better for a while, but then it started again. Please ask: what's wrong with a 1.5-year-old baby's stool having blood in it?

Doctor's answer:

This situation is likely caused by constipation. Since the constipation is quite severe, there may be blood during bowel movements due to the recurrence of anal fissures. It is recommended to reduce the child's intake of foods that are difficult to digest or prone to causing internal heat, and instead, consume more fresh vegetables and fruits. Additionally, oral medications that can regulate the intestines can be taken to help the child with bowel movements. If you still feel uneasy, you can also visit a colorectal surgery department for a check-up.
