Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children4 years agoA. constipation is a very common problem for which diet modification needs to be done like including high fibres in the diet for which you can give seasonal fruits like papaya, watermelon and seasonal vegetables will also help you can give Daliya and oatsmeal also to your child which is rich in fibres and nutrients too.
giving excesss of milk may also cause constipation, so you should limit the quantity. if any medication is required you shouldu take it under medical guidance only.lactulose or polyethylene glycol is of good help, sorbilene is also an option but you should give any medicine or suppository only when prescribed by your pediatrician.

Ankita MehtaMom of a 9 yr 11 m old girl4 years agoA. hi
yes
it happens because of inadequate intake of fluids and low fiber diet
so please keep your child well hydrated
offer fiber rich food like green leafy vegetables, tomatoes soup, prune juice, fruit like pear papaya plum banana etc to your child.
give massage to your child daily
encourage your child to do more physical activities
skip bakery food items
maintain good hygiene
