What Causes Bleeding From Anus?

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...I jsut started my baby on baby food last week after a few weeks of rice cereal. I gave the same food for a few days. Peas were fine but after carrots the outside of his anus was very red but also had bleeding on the cracks leading into it. I was carful when wiping and it didn t seem to hurt. I thought it might be from the different acidic levels in the food. Should I steer him clear of carrots and anything else that gives this effect? Should I be worried about anything else (is it unrealated to the food)?
