Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hello dear.
I would like to have mire details regarding the history.
Is it painful defecation?does the blood comes with hard stool and its painful to pass?if yes then its probably anal fissure due to constipationas you have told she doesnt like vegetables so she is lacking fibre in her diet.
Give her plenty of fluids and fibre containing diet like fresh fruits with skin and vegetables along with whole wheat bread.
If she has fever also and blood comes with loose stools and abdominal pain then it might be infection and she should see a pediatrician for medications.
Hope it will help.Wishing your child good health :-)
