Patient's question:
My baby is a premature child, and I was very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has been experiencing a series of situations, and I am also very worried, afraid that the child will get worse. How should I handle the situation where the baby frequently passes gas but does not defecate?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the constipation is caused by the baby. Since the child's digestive system is not yet fully developed, it is very easy to experience constipation. Don't worry, you can try giving some honey water. Additionally, gently massage the child's abdomen to help improve the condition. If the stool does not come out for a long time, you can use an enema to spray into the baby's rectum to help with defecation. Wishing the baby healthy growth.
