Having Blood Mucus In Stool. Was Upset And Taking Healthy Diet. Reason?
Hi. My grandson is 3 years old. Today my daughter told me that he had bloody mucous in his stool. She was upset and asked if she should take him to the ER. I told her to call his doctor. She made an appointment. What could possibly cause this? His diet is extremely healthy. He eats fresh organic produce including avocado , sweet potatoes and fruit. Not much junk food at all. Thank you for any help you could give. Sue email: YYYY@YYYY
Hi, It seems that your grandson might have some GI infection causing this problem. Go for stool test if your doctor advices to know the type of infection. Nothing to worry, with antibiotic and anti amebic medicine course he will be alright. give him light diet like curd, rice, fruit juices. Ok and take care.
