Question
My sister’s child has been complaining of pain in the buttocks lately, and it hurts when they go to the bathroom. The anus is a bit red. I want to know what could be the reason for a 4-year-old’s closed-eye activity?
Answer
If a child’s buttocks are red, it’s worth considering perianal eczema or changes caused by frequent use of diapers. It is recommended to use hydrocortisone econazole cream for external application to improve symptoms, and to reduce the time spent using diapers during the day. At the same time, it is necessary to maintain smooth bowel movements; if bowel movements are abnormal, it is suggested to take Bifidobacterium Triple Strain Live Bacteria Powder. Avoid eating spicy and irritating foods and junk food, and pay attention to a balanced diet, drink plenty of water, and clean the child’s buttocks daily.
