Suggest Medication For Redness On The Foreskin Upto The Rectum

MY 1 almost 2 year old son has been winny today. While changing his diaper I noticed the tip of his foreskin is really red, then there is this bulge type line that goes from the tip of the foreskin all the way down to his rectum. Then he has this crack or scratch going up is butt crack. The only changes I notice is that last night he had 3 different valve movements but they all consisted of little round rock type poop. Then this morning his poop was really runny. I don't know if that has anything to do with this strange red vein or bulged line in his private area. Not sure if i should rush him to the er. please help a concerned mother

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Seems like superficial infection of the perineum. Consult a general practitioner and start a short course of antibiotics preferably amoxicillin / clavulinic acid combination. Over the counter available topical antibiotics like mupirocin can also be applied.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
