Patient's question:
My daughter is 10 years old. She usually has a bowel movement only every two or three days. Recently, she has developed several mosquito-bite-like bumps on her body. The elders in the family said that the child has too much toxicity in her body and suggested giving her some Bezoar Purgative Tablets. I would like to ask if it's safe for a child of this age to take them. She is 156 cm tall and weighs 95 pounds.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the baby has a bowel movement every two or three days, and the skin has appeared with papules. The clinical diagnosis considers constipation and stomach upset. For this, it is recommended to use Mahuziren Wan, Wuren Wan, etc., to moisten the intestines and promote bowel movement. Additionally, you can use Niuhuang Jiedu Pian to clear heat and detoxify. The above is the advice for the question "My daughter is 10 years old and only has a bowel movement every two or three days." I hope it helps you. Wish you health!
