Patient's question:
The baby's stool is dry and cracked, and they cry for a long time every time they poop. It's like they only go every other day.Doctor's answer:
When a child has dry stools, it is easy to cause damage to the mucous membrane of the anal canal, which can then lead to cracked skin and pain. To address this, there are two main approaches: first, visit a gastroenterology department for local sterilization and treatment; second, ensure the child has a bowel movement once a day to prevent constipation. In the future, you can use an enema once a day to stimulate the child's bowel movement while also encouraging them to drink more water. If the child is already eating complementary foods, you can appropriately increase their intake of vegetables, fruit puree, and juice.The above are suggestions for this issue. I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
