Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

General solutions for infant constipation:
1. Drink more water.
2. For breastfed babies, mothers should adjust their dietary structure, focus on light eating, and drink more water as well.
3. Perform clockwise abdominal massage for the baby. Gently rub the infant's abdomen with the palm of your hand, starting at the navel and rotating from left to right. Massage 10 times, rest for 5 minutes, then massage another 10 times. Repeat this process 3 times.
4. If the baby does not defecate for several days, infant glycerin suppositories can be used.
