2.5-year-old baby often constipated, is it good to give him traditional Chinese medicine?

Patient's question:

Lately, my boss has said that I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I don't want to, either. I often can't sleep at night, and sometimes I feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. I'm asking if it's okay to give my 2.5-year-old baby traditional Chinese medicine for frequent constipation.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, you can adopt the method of eating more vegetables, fruits, and drinking more boiled water, which is beneficial for symptom improvement. If the effect is not good, you can use suppositories or laxatives for treatment. There are many factors that cause pediatric digestive diseases. If a child is diagnosed with a pediatric digestive disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to treat it promptly, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to develop picky eating habits in children and maintain a balanced diet.
