Patient's question:
I haven't had a bowel movement for about 10 days. At first, on the third day, I had to use a glycerin suppository to go. I went a lot, but I didn't finish. When I was having a bowel movement, I kept crying. Then, after another three days, I used a glycerin suppository again to go. It was the same as the last time. Later, after two more days, I used a glycerin suppository with the baby. As soon as the glycerin suppository went in, the baby cried badly. Not much came out. Then, after another day, I used it again. Only a little came out. Every time I tried to have a bowel movement, the baby cried. I used four glycerin suppositories in a row. It just wouldn't happen on its own. What should I do? The baby has started eating porridge with eggs. Breast milk and cow's milk are still being eaten.Doctor's answer:
Constipation refers to the slowing down of intestinal activity and excessive elimination of water, resulting in dry and hard stools, increased frequency, and difficulty in defecation. Due to the limited variety of food in infants' diets, the commonly consumed foods are low in fiber but high in protein content, making it easy for them to experience constipation again. The above suggestions are for the question "These days, it's always difficult to go. It hurts the buttocks. Keeps crying." It is hoped that this will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
