Bloody stools: I am not a pediatrician BUT bleeding per rectum is NOT normal. That skin tag or mole needs to be evaluated. The range of what be the cause is vast. From your post I can't say for sure if she needs to go to the Emergency Department right away BUT she needs to be seen and examined by a physician to decide on a plan of action.
