Patient's question:
Little girl, 6 years old this year, she has been coughing recently, and her bowel movements are not good either. Please ask: How to deal with constipation in newborns?Doctor's answer:
You can adjust the diet to provide more fiber-rich food juice in breast milk or formula, which helps form stool and stimulates intestinal peristalsis, achieving the goal of relieving constipation. If it doesn't work, it's recommended to take the child to the hospital for a thorough examination. Under the guidance of a doctor, oral medication to promote bowel movement can be given, or gentle abdominal massage can be performed to speed up defecation. For parents, it's important to help children receive timely treatment for illnesses. Additionally, in daily life, the child's diet should be balanced, avoiding excessive supplementation or malnutrition.
