Patient's question:
Female, 1 year old, from Shanghai. The child often suffers from constipation.Doctor's answer:
Hello, this is due to the baby having a heat-related issue causing constipation. The best remedy for a baby's constipation is to drink plenty of water! If the baby doesn't like drinking water, you can boil pears or mix calcium water. These are a bit sweet and the baby will enjoy them. Then gradually reduce the sweetness to help the baby adapt to plain water. You can occasionally use radish strips, soap strips, or suppositories to help the baby relieve constipation. It's important to drink plenty of plain water regularly.In addition to feeding the baby correctly, you can give them some cooling products to alleviate the heat-related symptoms. When selecting cooling products for infants and young children, pay attention to the following: safety, effectiveness, and non-dependence.
