Question
When a baby poops, faeces are also released from the vagina. What is the matter?
Answer
For a situation where a baby poops and faeces are also released from the vagina, it is suggested to undergo an imaging examination to determine the position of the fistula. Current measures include maintaining regional dryness and cleanliness, which can be achieved by using a diluted potassium permanganate solution for rinsing. At the same time, attention should be paid to the baby’s overall health, and if symptoms persist or worsen, medical treatment should be sought promptly.
