A ten-month-old baby has been constipated for two months. What should be done?

Patient's question:

The child has been crying non-stop recently and hasn't been eating much. How should I handle it if the ten-month-old baby has been constipated for two months?

Doctor's answer:

The symptoms caused by constipation are related to the slow gastrointestinal motility in children. Generally, timely massage can help recover. Don't worry. Observe and treat promptly. If there is poor digestion, it is recommended to take oral Shannai Jianpi Koufuye (Mountain Barberry Stomach Health Oral Liquid) and Smecta. For severe cases, consult a doctor for intravenous treatment. Extend the interval between feedings to allow the digestive system to rest. Drink more water. If introducing complementary foods, pause or reduce the amount added. Gradually restore the routine once symptoms improve. Especially avoid indigestible foods.
