Suggest Treatment For Sore Anus
My son just turned 3, he keeps talking about his bum being sore thoughout the day for 2 or so days. All I can tell is his anus is redish. There is no residue(poop) on it, which has always been the case in the past when it has looked red. It doesn t seem to be healing as fast either with ointment.
