So well done for clicking you are clearly as dedicated a parent as I am.

Right, tonights problem has levels.

Basically my dd did herself an unusual injury earlier whilst bouncing around on the sofa. She managed to apparently land on the arm in such a way as to damage herself. Specifically to (I think) create a small split in her perinium - that fab bit between the anus and fanjo that commonly tears in childbirth.

However, fear not for my dd (who is not pg indeed is only 4) she only had/has a tiny cut just above her anus.

Oooooh are we on TMI yet?

There's more

Right whilst stemming the blood (which there was a bit more than I would expect with a tiny cut) I noticed purple tiny bulges slightly further down around her anus.

Now I'm thinking haemorrhoids. and maybe even one of these was damage during sofa acrobatics......

Right I have a point.

  1. can children get haemorrhoids??
  2. does she need a gp visit to sort it if so?
  3. what the blardy hell could she have done to cut/split herself otherwise!!! it is a sofa ffs.
  4. do I now know an unhealthy amount of detail about someone elses anus?
  5. shall I print out this thread and put in her 'memory box' for her 18th birthday?

If you could help with any of that I'd appreciated it.
Ta.

I may not be 10 (or even a size 10 anymore) but I'm still very agile and training my two year old in how to do basic gymnastics so she can go to little gym when she's three. Mind you I don't ever want to go back to the A&E dept again because last time I was there with DD who had fallen over a doctor came up to me and said 'aren't you the ripped perenium lady' . It was a YEAR AGO FFS!
