If he cannot eat those. . .why are they still being given to him?
Re: Help! He Stools Blood. by LadyDee1(f): 8:52pm On Jul 01, 2010
If he has developed piles as you stated i advise you vary his diet.
The piles have formed in the first place from a high protein/carb diet and very low fibre intake causing constipation.

Try and reduce his carbohydrate and protein intake e.g. potatoe, yam, bread etc and increase his fibre intake.
This will help his bowl movements and his stools will be much softer which will help in reducing the blood in his stools.

Blood in his stools are usually due to him straining causing the blood vessels in the haemmorroids to rupture and bleed.

If the bleeding persists please take him to a doctor who can offer alternative treatment e.g. suppositoriies or oral medication,

potatoe, yam, bread are the things he likes eating and then there will be no blood in his stool. each time he eats things like Golden morn, Beans, Tea. he will always complain of stomach pains in the process of eating.

pls what are the fibers plsssssssssssssss cry cry cry

actually most complex treatment usually follow antibiotics, blood residue in stomach could decay and infect him, blood should not be in large quantity in stomach like that

@whiteroses
I see no reason why the kid should be given regular dosage of mild antibiotics when a test wasn't carried out to identify any underlying infection.Afterall,the bloody stool seems to be diet-related.
This is poor child care management since it has been occurring for more than two years now.

I completely agree with you, this is poor child care management and misuse ofr antibiotics, angry
Even if he has an infection, the antibiotics will be useless now since the virus/bacteria is already multiplied into a more resistant strain, sad

@ OP try and encourage him to eat more fruit and vegetables e.g. orange, banana, carrots and for more fibrous foods give hime weetabix (whole grain wheats cereal)

this should keep him regular and help his bowel movements, his stools will be much easier to pass and much softer wink

OP it may be an idea to stop giving him certain foods such as the golden morn and beans, monitor his eating habits and bowel movements to see if it stops, then gradually you can reintroduce certain foods but moderatly. smiley
Beans is high in protein which is causing the stomach pains and constipation,
