Patient's question:
What should I do if my bowel movement is dry? He hasn't had a bowel movement for 34 days. I have to use a laxative to make him go. What should I do? The child is a bit hot; is it because I dress him too warmly? Is it related to his dry bowel movement and my eating spicy food?Past treatment history and effectiveness: Previously, he had a bowel movement once a day.
What kind of help do you want: How can I prevent him from having a dry bowel movement?
Doctor's answer:
Constipation in children is primarily related to feeding methods and the mother, rather than the child's own gastrointestinal digestive and absorption capacity. It is recommended that mothers pay attention to their diet, avoiding spicy and stimulating foods, as otherwise, it will only cause the child to have stomach issues, which has nothing to do with how much they wear. Mothers can drink more soup and eat more vegetables and fruits, and the baby will gradually improve.
