confirm with your doctor is this is constipation. get the perianal area examined for any painful condition like sores, rash etc. hard stools can commonly cause such pain, you may ask your doctor to start some calcium bicarbonate supplements, that in addition may help soften the stools.

By the way he is bottle fed, today again we consulted the doctor and he said it is because of stomach infection and that is normal for bottle fed babies. Do we need to change doctor?
