Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
hi, my name is priscilla and i have a 2 yr old her grandmother just called and sent me a picture of my daughters panties with blood it looks more like loose stool with blood spots but she is telling me no its more like when a girl has her period im really worried my child is being sexually molested
Blood in panties of 2 year old is most commonly caused by two conditions- gastro-enteritis (may be associated with loose stools and pain / discomfort on passing stools, abdominal pain and sometimes fever) or urinary infection (may have discomfort / crying on micturition, vomiting or fever). For such cases, I used to give a 5 day course of antibiotics after confirming diagnosis. Kindly discuss with your doctor. To comment on sexual abuse, we need a detailed assessment of domiciliary surroundings end genital examination to assess vaginal orifice and and any vulval bruises.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
