Anal skin tag

[Pinklemon]

Hi, my dd has an anal skin tag. Recently it has been bleeding after passing stool. I have been putting sudocream on, but is there any more I can do to help it heal?

Hi it's where the stool is hard and they'll get what's called a fission or a small tear. Ensure plenty of fruit and even drink prune juice it's not that bad. Softer stools should help. I take it you've checked it's not piles? If so then you can either just help with softer stools to ease it or they can easily be removed. You can also get hemoroid (can't spell it!) cream which will help with the pain if the tears.
