Can anyone help? DD 3yo in pain when weeing this morning.

[rholo]

Hi,

She is well in herself but was crying out when weeing this morning. Looked in real pain. When I helped her wipe their was some faint blood on the paper. I have had a look and there seems to be a tiny cut and some blood at the bottom of her vulva. Our doctors is closed, should I go to the NHS walk in centre? If it's just a cut is there anything they can do or is it more likely to be some kind of infection? She doesn't have a temperature.

Thanks for any help and to stop me panicking.

Yes, I would take her to the walk in centre.

Thank you, think we're about to set off

Sounds like a UTI. Good luck with the walk in - we're at one at it's heaving!

Yes, not quite what we had planned for a sunny bank holiday! Best to get checked out though. Hope you are not there too long.

We were there 2.5 hours in the end (eat infection). How are you getting on?

Sorry, only just checked back here, hope ear infection clears up soon. We had a 2 hour wait and thankfully she doesn't have any infections but the staff were fab and I'm glad we went. Celebrated by spending the afternoon at the skip and the supermarket

Can I make a suggestion that's going to sound a bit odd, but bear with me!

Tonight, while she's asleep, find a torch or use a lamp to just check her front bottom for threadworms.

My dd has had symptoms like your Dd twice. Both times it turned out to be threadworms that migrated into her front bottom during the night and she was scratching herself in her sleep, causing the soreness.

It's worth checking, even if it's just to rule it out, ime.
