Patient's question:
My son is two years old. His bowel movements are always dry, sometimes hard, and it has even caused bleeding around his anus. I am very worried. My son was not naturally born, does that have anything to do with it? It started from when he was 7-8 months old.Doctor's answer:
Constipation, what to do after a baby has constipation, the stool is dry and hard, dry stool stimulates the anus, causing pain and discomfort, the baby is afraid to defecate and dare not defecate, difficulty defecating, the longer the constipated stool stays in the body, the more toxins accumulate in the body, affecting normal metabolism, leading to malnutrition and decreased immunity. So, how can the accumulated stool of a constipated baby be expelled quickly? Massage your palm downward, place it flat on the baby's navel, and then gently push in a clockwise direction. This can not only accelerate the baby's intestinal peristalsis but also promote intestinal movement and aid digestion. For the enema method, cut off the end seal of the enema and smooth out any burrs at the nozzle. Squeeze out a small amount of liquid to prevent the baby's anus from being injured.
