Question

What should I do if my child has a blue lump in the anal region?

Answer

The patient is a 4-year-old male with a previously healthy history. The current condition: 1. There was a bleeding incident during summer. This condition may be caused by hemorrhoids, requiring the use of topical hemorrhoid cream and oral medications such as Bu Zhong Yi Qi Wan, Huai Jiao Wan, Hua Xiu Wan, and Huai Jiao Wan. Avoid spicy and alcoholic irritant foods. Drink plenty of water, eat more vegetables and fruits to maintain bowel regularity. If the condition does not improve, seek medical attention for surgical treatment. Children have weaker physical resistance, so they are more prone to pediatric surgical issues. For parents, do not panic and should take their child to a top-tier hospital for examination and treatment promptly. Also, pay attention to regular check-ups for your child and administer medication under the doctor’s guidance.
