The baby's stool is bleeding, and parents must be very nervous, afraid that the bleeding will worsen and affect the baby's health. So the parents thought of going to the hospital, and this idea is correct. However, if a baby has rectal bleeding and wants to receive timely treatment, which department should be chosen?
When a baby shows symptoms of rectal bleeding, what department should they go to? Firstly, the color of the rectal bleeding should be identified. If it is bright red and there is pain near the anus, then consult a proctology or general surgery department; If it is dark red, black stool color, or presents a coffee color tone, it should be referred to the gastroenterology department.
There are many reasons for children to have rectal bleeding, and bleeding from the entire digestive tract can cause rectal bleeding. Most cases of rectal bleeding are caused by digestive disorders. Suggest further examination and symptomatic treatment.
In daily life, we should cultivate the good habit of children defecating on time. When a child defecates, it is important to choose a time when both parents and the child are not tight, allowing the child to defecate naturally and patiently on time every day, in order to develop the habit of defecating on time and allow the child to have an appropriate amount of activity. For infants, parents can encourage them to roll and crawl in bed to increase their activity and prevent constipation. For older children, parents can take them for walks after meals to increase their activity and promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, in order to prevent constipation.
In terms of diet, scientific feeding is necessary. The diet of children should be combined with their physiological characteristics, and a reasonable dietary structure should be selected according to their growth needs to ensure the health of the body. In addition to consuming sufficient protein and carbohydrates, children should also eat more fiber rich foods such as coarse grains, vegetables, and fruits, which have a significant effect on preventing constipation in children.
The diagnosis of pediatric rectal bleeding is mainly based on the color of the blood. In addition to cooperating with doctors for treatment, we should also cultivate good bowel habits for babies in daily life, pay attention to their dietary structure, achieve internal adjustment and external nourishment, and help babies recover their physical health.
