Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
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.
many thanks.
your child have either rectal prolapse or polyp.
For rectal prolapse you do the following.
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.
