Constipation in children can be resolved using painless methods. (1) Gently rub the child's abdomen with the palm of your hand, centered around the navel, moving from left to right in a circular motion. Perform the massage 10 times, rest for 5 minutes, then repeat the massage 10 times. Repeat the entire process 3 times. (2) Have the child lie face down and gently move both legs in a flexion and extension motion, extending a few times and then flexing a few times, for a total of 10 repetitions. Then, perform the flexion and extension motion with one leg 10 times. (3) Apply an oily topical medication (such as tetracycline ointment) to the child's anal opening, place a soft paper pad, and gently press the anus while slowly performing the motion 10 times. Usually, the child will soon feel the urge to defecate or will defecate.
