Also be sure there is no bleeding disorder causing the blood. Have lab work
done, x rays, and even ultrasound that can be a less invasive way to
evaluate BUT if cost is a concern you may want to explore since even with
all the above you may require surgery. Be sure to at least get labwork and x
rays. Best of luck to you and your little one.
