Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and hasn't been eating much. How can pediatric constipation be treated?Doctor's answer:
Children who frequently experience constipation are inevitably linked to an imbalance in gut microbiota and poor gastrointestinal motility. It is recommended to maintain a balanced diet, eat small meals frequently, and engage in appropriate abdominal massage and exercise after meals. This can effectively enhance gastrointestinal motility, thereby alleviating constipation symptoms. When necessary, taking probiotics to adjust the imbalance in gut microbiota can be beneficial. Generally, paying attention to dietary habits can effectively relieve the condition.
