Patient's question:

Doctor's answer:

Constipation is a common gastrointestinal disease in young children, mainly because their digestive function is weak and they are not easily able to adjust it on their own. Effective internal and external integrated methods are needed, and only through patient treatment can be cured. In this case, it is recommended to start with oral Si Mo Tang for treatment and perform abdominal massage. It is advised to drink more water, moderately feed some fruit and vegetable juice. If breastfeeding, the mother can drink honey water on an empty stomach in the morning, which can help the child's intestines and keep bowel movements smooth.
