A member asked:

My daughter 5 went number two and had blood in stool looked like inside the stool wiped her and looked pinkish red any ideas on what it could be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bloody stool: Pinkish red blood in the stool usually comes from the lower rectum or anus and hemorrhoids or a fissure or trauma could be the cause. Inflammation of the lower colon or rectum is less likely. Your pediatrician can perform a gentle anorectal examination for evaluation especially if further bleeding occurs.
