What Causes Pain/discomfort In Buttocks In 3 Year Old?

My son who is three is complaining about his butt hurting where he wipes. Its not red or irritated or has any bumps and I wipe him after the bath room so I know he s clean yet he still is in pain/ discomfort. I have no idea on what it could possibly be?

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

It is likely to be due to anal fissure. It's a small ulcer situated at antimalarial opening. It requires careful examination for diagnosis.
I would suggest you to consult Pediatrician for clinical examination.


Take care

Best regards
Dr Deepak
