[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]11:23 here. Did the pediatrician document physical injury? From your post it seems no one was particularly helpful. Is that why you’re not yet sure how to proceed?[/quote]

OP here. No physical injury, but my daughter was really upset by the exam, and she was really sad/withdrawn after the exam.[/quote]
Was the pediatrician a familiar face to you and your daughter? They should not have traumatized her.[/quote]

Yes she is a wonderful pediatrician and she is very familiar.  We went to see her b/c our daughter was refusing to wipe or wash her pee-pee b/c she said there was a crack in there and it hurt.  We went to the doctor so she could look at the crack.  When the doctor said there was no crack, our daughter was really upset. She said there was a crack and it hurt and blood was coming out.

Its so heartbreaking to hear all of this. [/quote]

Most doctors, I only have boys, but do a yearly exam down there and talk to them about their private parts (no one should touch, including a doctor without parent permission, etc).  However, could this have happened and something else.  Kid can bleed if they have too hard poops and it happen a few times and the blood could have been coming from somewhere else and scared her.  Or, the crack healed itself enough that it stopped bleeding.  There are so many explanations but you are better off reacting and apologizing later than ignoring the situation.[/quote]
