Patient's question:
Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:Constipation, occurring every two or three days, frequent spitting up. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: No specific history found.
What kind of help is needed: To make the child have regular bowel movements, increase spitting up.
Doctor's answer:
Two months ago, I experienced constipation every two or three days and often vomited milk.Recommendation: For children, using glycerin suppositories is a common method.
Method: Due to the rigid and rough opening of glycerin suppositories, their use in treating children's constipation often causes redness, swelling, and pain around the anus, and may even damage the rectal mucosa, causing discomfort to the child. Additionally, it is difficult to cooperate with children during use. Therefore, when using it for children, special attention must be paid to the method. [1] Using a 20ml syringe and a disposable scalp needle to administer enemas externally for children is more effective, easier to operate, and makes the child feel more comfortable, making it easier to cooperate.
Steps:
1. Suck all the liquid from the glycerin suppository into a 20ml syringe (discarding the needle part).
2. Connect a disposable scalp needle (cut off the needle part at the front of the scalp needle, leaving 2–5 cm for insertion).
3. Apply petroleum jelly to the scalp needle before inserting it.
Note: It is not advisable to use this method frequently.
