Why does my 2 yr old son keep getting perianal abcesses?

Many Reasons: Many causes for this: chronic constipation, MRSA colonization, crohn's disease and many other possibilities. Make an appointment with your doctor to sit down and discuss all of these possibilities. A consult from a pediatric gastroenterologist may also be well worth your time.
