Your daughter may have an imperforate anus with a perineal fistula. The fistula is a false channel from the rectum to the skin. There may be only a thin membrane separating the anus (the butt hole) from the rectum (the last part of the large intestine). But sometimes the distance between the two is rather far. The anatomical variation may be simple or complex.
Constipation and an apparent anal opening near the vaginal opening are strong indications that this is so.
It is an easily missed anomaly during the newborn exam.
Bring this situation to your pediatrician's attention now. Some of these abnormalities are easily correctable by surgery, but others are much more complex. Make sure you are referred to a pediatric surgeon experienced in these conditions. Some larger pediatric centers have surgeons who specialize in the complex cases.

if the child is really young, under 6, be carefull of any over the counter meds. they could have life threating side effects. i would suggest that if this a problem that persits for more than 3 or 4 days you need to see a doctor if possible.
