Is blood in the stool dangerous? Could it be related to his antibiotics?
34-year-old woman
Hello my 17 month old baby had a bowel movement and there was abnormally blood in his stool a little but a lot more in his anus, he is taking laxaday because he is always constipated, his stool was not hard but not soft either, he is taking biaxin since Saturday to treat an ear infection.

Hello, how many times have you noticed this?

only once yesterday morning, but he hasn't had a bowel movement since.

Finally this afternoon he did it again, there was blood but a little less than yesterday

Thanks for the feedback, I'm sorry for the delay in my response, I hadn't seen the notification!
If the blood is when you wipe with the wipes, like diaper irritation, only apply a 40% zinc paste like Zincofax extra strength at each diaper change.
If it is bleeding from the inside, you should consult a doctor for a child of this age.
