Patient's question:
My Baby eats a lot, which is normal, but why does he have constipation every time he has a bowel movement?Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition:First and foremost, it is important to note the correct guidance from parents. Before the child defecates, they should be given a signal, and the time should be kept relatively fixed every day to gradually help them adapt to regular bowel movements. If the child does not defecate, it should not be forced, nor should they be made to sit on the toilet for a long time. In terms of diet, appropriate refined foods, vegetables, sweet potatoes, fruits, etc., should be provided.
Suggestions:
For children who frequently suffer from constipation, in addition to training their bowel habits, some medications that promote intestinal motility and bowel lubrication can be given intermittently. It is also important to note that formula milk, breast milk, and calcium should not be consumed together. They should be spaced out by at least 2 hours, as otherwise, they may also lead to constipation.
