Patient's question:
My baby sometimes suffers from constipation frequently. As a mother, I dare not use Western medicine indiscriminately for my child. I have also consulted several reliable traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, so I want to rely on Chinese medicine for conditioning. I would like to understand how to condition my little one's constipation? Is there any method that can completely cure it?Doctor's answer:
For children who experience constipation again, first, in terms of diet, it is important to give them light and easily digestible foods. They can drink porridge, fruit juice, eat boiled noodles, rice porridge, and so on. These should be coordinated with Si Mo Tang to promote the smooth flow of gastrointestinal qi, probiotics to regulate the gastrointestinal flora, and oral lactulose to relieve constipation. If herbal medicine regulation is chosen, it is also necessary to prescribe medications based on the child's tongue and pulse to alleviate the condition.
