Can Red Anus In Child Be Due To Worms?
i am wondering whether my son has worms. he is 2 1/2 years old and my husband noticed he has a really red anus after a bowel movement the other night. he has something redish in his bowel movements since. i have looked to see if they move thinking they may be worms or something.

1.stool test for ova,parasite,ameoba etc.
2.Diet with high fat.Avoid spicy food.
3.toilet training with Itian commode and ask him not to sit for long and stain.
4.Cealiac disease profile.
for rectal polyp needs Examination under anaesthesia and polypectomy and colonoscopy.
