Colorectal diseases are not only common in adults, but also in children, such as perianal abscesses and anal fissures. After children suffer from anal fissures, they usually experience bleeding and pain, which can make them afraid to defecate. Anal fissures are usually caused by constipation. So, what about anal fissures in a three-year-old child?
1. After a child develops anal fissures, it is important to maintain regular bowel movements. Children can be given laxatives or paraffin oil, which can make their stool soft and smooth, reducing the pain and difficulty of defecation. Children can also eat more fiber rich foods to avoid constipation.
2. When a three-year-old child develops anal fissures, parents should use soft toilet paper to wipe them after each bowel movement. After wiping, they should also take a sitz bath with warm water mixed with disinfectant to disinfect and promote the healing of the fissure. If a child's anal fissure recurs, the method of local burning with silver nitrate can also be used to treat it. Generally, it only takes a few times to heal the anal fissure.
3. If a child's anal fissure is very severe, it is necessary to undergo anal dilation surgery. This surgical procedure is very simple and does not require special instruments, and the therapeutic effect is also very good. The main recovery work after surgery is to take a sitz bath every day. Usually, the wound will heal quickly after surgery.
