” my 9 year old daughter has blood in her poo. It was evident on tissue post wiping and quite visible in the toilet. She has had this twice before a few weeks ago. Should I be concerned as she generally has no problems passing stools and last passed two days ago. This may not be related but she had a rash on her chest last week which we put down to a viral thing, as she was feeling cold but had no fever etc.”
Into the GP and start there.
The new appearance of blood in your child’s poo is one of those things that should flag a visit to the doc.
Always. Causes of blood in your child’s poo vary — depending on your child’s age, medical history, family history, etc. Just like in adults, there are many harmless causes but there are some causes that warrant an expert opinion.
