A member asked:
4yr old had diarrhea that was brown with alot of pink/salmon colored mucousy stuff in it, is it blood? what would cause this? she seems fine otherwise
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible blood: This fresh appearing substance sounds like blood mixed with mucus and could have stemmed from a small anal fissure that opened up with the diarrhea. If it doesn't subside, call your pediatrician for an examination.
