My daughter is forty days old and often doesn't have a bowel movement for several days. What should I do?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Based on the symptoms you mentioned, it is considered to be a manifestation of constipation. It is mainly caused by the accumulation of heat in the gastrointestinal tract, consumption of body fluids, and the retention of waste materials. It is recommended to clear heat, moisturize the intestines, and promote bowel movement. Fish oil can be taken as a treatment.
