What Does Blood In Stools Of Toddlers After A Fall Mean?
Hi my 7 months old infant had an accident 6 days ago. He fall from the baby travel system in the concrete sidewalk. He was doing well but I send him to pediarician and he had an head MRI which come norma. Today day 6 after the accident he started to have some fresh blood in the stool not in the considerable amount. Could this be internal bleeding even though is day 6? he is vomiting as well.

Hi and welcome to HCm. this cant be internal bledding, this would have some other signs. i dont think this is related to injury. blood in stool isnt uncommon in any enterocolitis. just watch for any new sign,but at this point there is no need to be worried.Wish you good health. Regards
