Although babies are very young, they are also prone to problems that adults may encounter. Adults may experience anal fissures, which are extremely painful, and babies may also experience anal fissures. Due to the pain in the anus, babies often cry uncontrollably, causing mothers to feel particularly anxious. So, what should I do with a baby's anal fissure?
Firstly, let's talk about the reasons for the baby's anal fissure. The main reason for a baby's anal fissure is dry stool and difficulty in defecation. If the baby experiences such a condition, an anal fissure is often inevitable.
When a baby has an anal fissure, the first thing to adjust is their diet. Give the baby more light and easily digestible food, and drink more plain water. If the baby is fed formula milk, try to dilute the formula milk as much as possible. Excessive thickening of the formula milk can easily cause constipation in the baby, leading to anal fissures during bowel movements. If the baby is breastfed, it is best for the mother to eat more foods that reduce internal heat and nourish the baby. This can help relieve constipation and improve bowel movements.
Furthermore, if a baby has an anal fissure, it is best to use some anti-inflammatory and moisturizing ointment to apply to the baby's anal area. This is beneficial for the healing of the fissure and can also reduce the baby's pain, which is beneficial for the healing of the anal fissure. If a baby experiences constipation, you can massage their abdomen clockwise to facilitate bowel movements and prevent the occurrence of anal fissures.
