Just asking on behalf of a friend.. My friends 13 month old for the past few months suffers pain while passing stools. Even soft poos.. The doctors have given him stuff to help soften stools but he is still in so much pain when he does it... I saw the pain he was in today when he was passing stools and it wasnt nice.. I felt so much for him.. The poor wee man.. it broke my heart. .He was shaking , crying and so much in pain... There must be something else a doctor can do for him..surely!!! he shouldnt have to suffer like that everytime. Anyone else any ideas on what it could be.. or had it happen to your lil ones?? ------------- http://pregnancyplanet.net/tickers/">

Haemarroids, inside his anus, that arent visable?
Does he have any blood in his poo, or after he is wiped? |

My guess is that it's a fissure - ouch! Poor wee man. Didn't happen to my little one, it happened to me and I can TOTALLY sympathise. Everything I found out said keep motions soft as possible and it should heal over by itself, just takes time. However, after eight weeks of not being able to sit down (couldn't even drive) and it wasn't healing, I ended up having an operation.   I'm surprised the doctors haven't picked it up though, it's apparently fairly common in young kids.------------- Mum to two gorgeous girls! |

Sounds like a fissure to me too. Caitlin had one of those when we started with all of her constipation problems and she used to scream when she went! 
There's not much they can do other than prescribe laxitives and a high fibre diet to make sure it heals and isn't agrevated further ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I thought it sounded like it could be a fissure, too. They're often caused by bad constipation, but I remember someone on here once saying that they can also somehow be caused by stools that are too soft and make their way out too quickly. Has he had enough time to see if his current medicine is working? ------------- Andie |
