Could my sister's frequent colds be related to blood in stool?
Patient's Query
Hi. It’s regarding my younger sister she’s 4. After Eid, she stopped eating and lost weight a bit. But she’s been eating well again for the last 2 weeks so her appetite is back to normal. She had an ear infection and flu right before she lost her appetite but her appetite loss happened after finishing the antibiotics. However, over the past months she always says ‘my leg hurts’ and she says it’s her ankle. It doesn’t make her cry or anything and it doesn’t stop her playing like a wild animal ???? but today she has blood in her poo and on tissue when wiping it was bright red blood it’s happened before when she was constipated she didn’t drink much water yesterday and my other sister also got the norovirus so it could be that- her poo was watery. She also catches colds frequently
Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar
Seeing blood when she goes poo could mean she's constipated. That can make poo hard to pass. It may also be from norovirus, which causes diarrhea and tummy aches. Her sore leg needs checking too. That pain may relate to her other problems or signal something else. Make sure she drinks lots of water and eats healthy foods to help her tummy feel better. If the leg pain gets worse or won't go away, take her to the doctor.
