How to deal with dry stools in a 100-day-old baby

Patient's question:

I don't know if he has this condition, and his mental state isn't good either. How should I handle constipation in a 100-day-old baby?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, it may be due to insufficient body fluids and dry intestines, where the loss of body fluids leads to the intestines lacking moisture, impairing their function in moving waste. This condition is primarily characterized by dry, hard stools, difficulty in defecation, and symptoms of fluid deficiency. It is also known as the Large Intestine Fluid Deficiency Syndrome.
If there is excessive internal heat in the intestines, you can use Bian Nai Tong Cha for treatment. If the infant has difficulty defecating, it is often related to overly refined breast milk. Massaging the infant's abdomen more frequently, and feeding them well-cooked vegetable paste or mashed bananas can help promote bowel movements. It is recommended that you try these adjustments.
