childrens bums!!?


Question:
my 7 yr old complains of a jaggy bum!!i thought maybe he hadnt wiped himself properly checked and he was fine.monday night he woke us screaming that his bum was sore when i asked what kind of sore he said sore inside ?he was jumping like there was some sort of spasm?again i looked and it seemed fine.we have doctor 2mo but i wondered if it might be piles?do kids get piles?he,s not constapated? any ideas?

Answers:
Could this be thread worms - they come down the intestine at night to feed and this seems to be the feeling as my child told me. Check when he goes to toilet and if small white (like bits of thread) are there you need to get treatment from doc.... and follow huge hygiene procedures ie. bathing in morning first thing, washing all bedding every day etc etc etc.
May be piles as it can be caused by constipation or a fissure - which is a small tear in the rectum. Prob best to get checked out. Good luck.
yes children can get them, try a luke warm not hot bath and put some baking soda in it.
