Considering the child has constipation, it is recommended to give the child more water to drink, massage the abdomen frequently to promote intestinal movement, and consume more fruit and vegetable juices. Mom won't interfere with the child. Mom can also drink more water and eat more fruits and vegetables. It should be that the food is not digested properly, and the child must drink more water. During the treatment, the patient needs to follow a dietary plan, maintain a regular schedule, actively participate in physical exercise, regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene.
