Patient's question:
My 3-year-old niece has difficulty starting bowel movements, needing to squat several times to pass them. Sometimes there is also bleeding, and the stool is not fully formed. Except for the initial difficulty, everything else is normal. What should I do?Treatment history and effectiveness: She has never seen a doctor.
What kind of help do you need: Please kindly ask the doctor to provide an explanation.
Doctor's answer:
This condition is infant constipation. It is mainly caused by insufficient intake of dietary fiber. First, let the child drink more water and consume more vegetables and fruits to avoid foods that are difficult to digest. You can use physiotherapy to massage the baby's abdomen in a clockwise direction to promote intestinal motility. If the child still cannot defecate, they can take infant star tea or infant digestive pills. The above suggestions are for the question "My 3-year-old niece finds it very difficult to urinate at the end," and I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
