Anal fissure is a common anal canal disease. Anal fissure refers to the fissure deep below the anal canal tooth line and the whole skin. Anal fissure is a common disease in infancy, and its etiology is mainly related to diet. If milk is fed, complementary food is not added in time, resulting in dry stool; When defecation is too fierce, when hard feces forcibly pass through the anal canal, it causes deep laceration of the anal canal skin. It may also be caused by rough friction of toilet paper or strong ejection of stool when suffering from diarrhea. The clinical manifestations are severe pain in anus during defecation and after defecation, so the baby is fidgeting and crying. Infants in the fastest growing period suffer from anal fissure, which can be cured quickly as long as parents take timely measures.
1, promote breastfeeding. Breast milk is the best nutrient for babies. Breast milk is mainly whey protein, which is easy to digest and absorb, so babies who eat breast milk have soft stools.
2. Let children develop good hygiene habits and keep their stools unobstructed. Parents should cultivate their children's good habit of defecating on time every day, not picky about food or partial eclipse. Eating a certain amount of water and fresh vegetables containing cellulose every day helps to keep the stool unobstructed. Once constipation occurs, you can often feed your baby with greasy foods such as yogurt, soy milk, honey, bananas and fruits.
3. Keep the local area clean and hygienic. The child has anal fissure. Parents should gently wipe with soft toilet paper after defecation, and then sit in the bath with 1∶5000 potassium permanganate (PP powder) warm water solution 10 to 20 minutes, which can play a role in local disinfection and accelerate the healing of cracks.
4, local cautery treatment. For children with long-term recurrence of anal fissure, parents can burn it locally with 20% silver nitrate under the guidance of a doctor, and then wipe off the excess silver nitrate with a cotton swab stained with normal saline once a day, and the anal fissure will heal quickly.
In order to effectively prevent constipation, anal fissure and bloody stool in children, parents should pay attention to the following three points:
(1) for scientific breeding. Children's diet should be combined with their physiological characteristics to meet their growth needs and ensure their health, so there should be a reasonable diet structure. Children should of course eat enough protein (such as milk, eggs, lean meat, fish, etc.). ), but they must also eat a proper proportion of carbohydrates (such as grains and vegetables). ), and they don't all eat polished rice and rich flour. They should eat more foods rich in dietary fiber, such as coarse grains, vegetables, fruits, etc., which plays a great role in preventing children from constipation.
(2) Let children have proper activities. In the late neonatal period, children may be prone to fasting. When the baby is a little older, he can roll and crawl on the bed, which is not only conducive to preventing constipation, but also conducive to the healthy development of the child.
(3) Cultivate children's good habit of defecation on time. When parents and children are not pressed for time, letting children defecate on time every day and patiently do it can form the habit of defecating on time.
When the child has constipation, anal fissure and bloody stool, parents can't simply use laxatives or stuff kaiselu into the anus. They should let children eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, drink more water and treat both the symptoms and the root causes to alleviate their pain.
