Why does my 9-year-old have red stool?

Patient's Query

reason for red colored blood with poop in 9 years old?

Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

The presence of red blood in stools of a child can often indicate issues like hemorrhoids, anal fissures, or even gastrointestinal irritation. Each situation may also involve symptoms such as discomfort or changes in bowel habits. It’s important to monitor any additional signs like pain or changes in appetite. Encouraging a diet rich in fiber and ensuring adequate hydration can help promote healthy digestion. However, I recommend discussing these symptoms with a gastroenterologist. They can provide a thorough evaluation and appropriate care tailored to your child's needs, ensuring peace of mind for you and your family.

Realted to gallbladder wall thinking

Male | 35

If you have gallbladder wall thickening, it is recommended to get a gastroenterologist to do further diagnosis. This syndrome may simply be a precursor to other issues, as such gallstone or pancreatitis.

Male | 29

Dealing with not fee­ling all empty after going to the bathroom and tummy trouble­s, I get it. Irritable bowel syndrome­, or IBS for short, commonly brings these issues. It's a lasting condition ne­eding ongoing care. Cutting out things that trigger it like­ dairy, spicy eats, and caffeinated drinks might provide­ relief. Staying active re­gularly also helps manage symptoms. Don't forget to drink ple­nty of fluids and de-stress, as these­ can worsen IBS.

Am anand having breathing problem (aspiration )due to GERD for last week. Kindly prescribe tablets for this and food habit for gerd recovery. No pain in chest and abdomen, only breathing issue. Ecg normal.

Male | 37

GERD is a disorder that occurs when stomach acid comes back into the food pipe. The food pipe is what brings the food to the stomach. This can result in breathing problems as well. In this case, you can take antacids such as Tums or Rolaids to help with the acid. Avoid spicy, fatty, and acidic foods. Try to eat smaller meals and do not lie down right after eating. This can make you feel better.

Dear Dr. , Good morning I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to seek your medical advice regarding several health issues I have been experiencing recently. These symptoms are affecting my daily life, and I am concerned about their underlying causes. Below is a detailed description of the symptoms I am facing: 1. **Immunity and Oxygen Problems:** I have been feeling unusually fatigued and prone to frequent infections, which makes me concerned about my immune system. Additionally, I sometimes experience shortness of breath and dizziness, indicating possible issues with oxygen delivery. 2. **Digestive Issues:** I am suffering from constipation and bloating. My stools are irregular, and there is a persistent bad smell in my flatulence. These symptoms are accompanied by a feeling of discomfort in my stomach. 3. **Body Cramps:** I frequently experience cramps in various parts of my body. These cramps can be quite painful and are affecting my mobility and comfort. 4. **General Malaise:** There is an ongoing sense of unease and a strange feeling within my body that I cannot specifically describe. It is a general sense of not feeling well, which is concerning and distressing. 5. **Throat Mucus:** I often feel as though there is mucus stuck in my throat. This sensation is especially pronounced in the mornings, and drinking water or brushing my teeth can sometimes make me feel like I am going to vomit. Given the variety and persistence of these symptoms, I am worried about my overall health and well-being. I would greatly appreciate it if we could schedule an appointment to discuss these issues in detail and undergo any necessary examinations or tests to determine the root causes and appropriate treatments. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your guidance and assistance in improving my health. Sincerely, irfan Advocate Civil court Varanasi Mobile no -9454950104,7275631533

If you have been experiencing fatigue, frequent illnesses, or difficulty breathing this could mean that your immune system is weak or you have low oxygen levels. Also constipation, bloating, and smelly gas could be signs of digestive problems. Muscle cramps are not only painful but can also be very uncomfortable at times. The ‘weird’ sensation that you mentioned and any throat mucus might also be connected to overall wellness issues in your body. Therefore, you must see a medic so that they may examine you thoroughly and offer appropriate remedies for these signs.
