No he has no known problems with his bowels. This is a Group A strep

infection as well. They did ask about diarreah and constipation which he

says he did not have. At 5 1/2 I don't really go to the bathroom with him

anymore to know. I didn't even know anything was going on with him till he

pointed out the blood on the toilet paper last Tuesday. Thanks!

yes strep can be anywhere. Remember Strep B on the Cervix and the concern

for babies at birth from moms that are active carriers? It is unusual to get

it on the Anus but I think there is probably more of it but it is not

cultured to know what it is. It is probably considered a diaper rash or

broken down due to diarreah or constipation. You may want to consider why

the tissue broke down to start with and treat the underlying cause of the

skin breakdown such as the above. Does he have problems with his bowels???

the infection could have been any bacteria it is generally where there is a

break in the skin integrity.

Hi ,

Does Jonah have neutropenia? We have issues with this and one of the

precautions is avoiding rectal temps because there is such a high risk of

infection there if the child is neutropenic. You didn't say how old he was,

so that might not be a factor, but it might be worth asking the doctor to

check if he's neutropenic if he hasn't already.

good luck! , mom to 3 with CVID, on SubQ weekly http://foxfamilypid
