My 6 month old has a slight tear or opening between vagina and anus. Went to see surgeon because pediatrician thought it was fasicular ( not sure that is the name) however she said she is not sure what it is a referred is to see another set of doctor. She has no discomfort, it has never changed in size or bled.. any thoughts?
