Why is the baby's anus red1

  There are many reasons for a baby's red anus. The first reason is that the baby is young and has been wearing diapers for a long time. Due to excessive urine, the baby's diaper was not replaced in time, causing the baby's little buttocks to be stuffy in a humid environment for too long and resulting in a red anus; It is also possible that babies who are allergic to diapers may experience symptoms of anal redness.

  The second reason is that the baby's frequent urination and defecation can lead to urinary system infections or gastroenteritis, which can cause redness and swelling of the baby's anus and perianal area. This also indicates that the baby's perianal area is infected with inflammation or has symptoms of hip inflammation.

  The third reason is that breastfeeding mothers consume foods with high levels of acidity or spicy and irritating foods, which are transmitted to their babies through breast milk. After the babies consume milk containing these substances, they may experience anal redness and swelling.

  The fourth reason is that some parents use diapers for their babies that need to be changed, and the detergent used during diaper cleaning can cause allergies in the baby, or residual detergent on the diaper can irritate the baby's anus and perianal skin, leading to redness and swelling.
