Reduce the quantity of milk to 2-3 times a day. Increase fibre in meals. Add fruits and vegetables, cereals like ragi, jowar. This is a diet related issue. Passage of blood can be due to extremely hard stool. If there is repeated passage of blood consider consulting a pediatric surgeon to rule out possibility of fissure. Avoid packed items, junk food in all forms. Keep the child on soft diet
