What Causes Blood In Stool?

hi. I have a 2 year old child and she took a poop in her diaper about an hour ago, which was covered in pink lumps. it looked like intestines or something. she seems fine and is active. her anus was a little sore when I wiped her and there was a tiny bit of blood on the wipe, maybe not even a drop each time. I saved the stool and took pics if that helps, and I can somehow get the pictures to you.

Pediatrician,  's  Response
hi, thanks for the question. if your child is passing hard stools then it might be because of the hard stools which causes minimal tear in anal skin causing bleeding and soreness of anus. if your child is passing hard stools then give her plenty of water, fruit juice like apple, ornge etc. if these things dont work then try some laxative like lactulose.
