Patient's question:
I am a 45-year-old woman who took care of my child and noticed that my child was a little uncomfortable. Please ask: How to regulate and treat constipation in children?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it should be considered that the child may have poor digestive function. It is necessary to use abdominal massage to promote intestinal peristalsis and take symptomatic medication orally to regulate gastrointestinal function. In terms of diet, appropriate adjustments should be made, such as eating small meals frequently, consuming more fiber-rich foods, eating more fruits and vegetables, drinking plenty of water, and developing the habit of having a bowel movement once a day. If there is blood in the stool, it is important to be aware of the possibility of anal fissure. The patient needs to maintain a disciplined diet, follow a regular schedule, regulate physical and mental health, and pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life. It is also necessary to eat more light, soft, and liquid foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
