Why Does Blood Appear In The Underwear?
my son had some mucus and a little bit of blood in his underwear after his shower tonight, he is 5 years old. he had a bowel movement right before his shower and he said it did not hurt and he feels fine. just a little concerned and wanted to make sure we don't need to do anything tonight.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
If he is otherwise well, then you should not have to worry.
He may have strained slightly when using the bathroom previously even though he stated that it did not hurt.
You can monitor to see if it continues or for any additional symptoms.
I hope this helps
