Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on HealthcareMagic.
Anemia is expected after a heavy bleeding from the rectal tear.
However, an excessive bleeding out of proportion to the injury requires a hematological work up.
Excessive bleeding after any injury can occur due to disorders of coagulation or clotting system.
von Willebrands disease is one of the coagulation disorder which is also one of the commonest.
As you have mentioned that 2 units of PRBCs have been administered, it should increase the hemoglobin by two units.
However, if the hemoglobin is not improving, a cause for it needs to be found out.
In this situation you need to consult a hematologist to investigate for any coagulation disorder and persistence of low hemoglobin despite PRBC transfusion.
Rest of the XXXXXXX issues need to managed symptomatically - gingivities and joint problem.
You need to consult a dentist for gingivitis.
For the joint problem, you need to consult an orthopedician for clinical assessment.
For weight issue, you need first get anemia corrected and thereafter the cause for low weight can be looked for and thus treated.
Thanks and take care
