Guest guest Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 My four year old who has symptoms of yeast is suffering from constipation. When ever he passes stool he has to push hard and the stool comes in watery shape with blood in it. He is on diflucan from last two weeks. We give 50 mg per day. Is this blood due to bacteria? Is his constipation requires more dose of anti fungal? There is no fissure or external bleeding near his anus. Regards, Sajeel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Sounds like a Gi bleed to me. The fact that it can be red or dark bloood some times points to that. These bleeds can be intermittent when it's red it means it is actively bleeding during the BM when it's dark it means blood came out a while ago and was sitting there in the colon until the next BM. If it is indeed a GI bleed depending on the volume it can be considered an acute issue that may call for surgical intervention. I don't know of a fix for it , just watch the volume carefully and it may be time to consult with someone...

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 Bright red blood is generally a sign of new blood as in hemmroids which you cannot always see and if the child is constipated and pushing obviously can cause that. Darker red blood is generally a sign that the blood is older as in has been in the tract longer so is generally considered more serious. So if you have a smear on the toilet paper and its intermittent it may not be cause for alarm- I AM NOT A DOCTOR- but if you are seeing lots of blood I would see a DR. Hemmroids can cause lots of blood in the water as well so its always good to get a professional opinion if you are concerned. > > > > > > > My four year old who has symptoms of yeast is suffering from constipation. > > When ever he passes stool he has to push hard and the stool comes in watery > > shape with blood in it.
