Patient's question:
My baby is 50 days old. Recently, the child has been constipated, only defecating once a day, and it looks very hard for him to do so. Is it a problem with breastfeeding or formula?Doctor's answer:
The general treatment for pediatric constipation is as follows:1. Drink more water.
2. Breastfeed infants. Mothers should adjust their dietary structure, pay attention to a light diet, and drink more water.
3. Massage the infant in a clockwise direction. Usage: With the navel as the center, gently massage the infant's abdomen with the palm of your hand from left to right. Massage 10 times, each time for 5 minutes. Repeat the massage 3 times. Feed more fruits, vegetable juice, and water. Feed at a moderate pace. The concentration of formula should be very diluted.
