Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. Constipation is usually a very common problem seen in many where the most important causative factor is decrease intake of fiber rich diet along with lesser fluid intake.
some food like junk food mostly containing maida and oily food can aggravate such condition.
Here the diet modification should be tried first so encourage fibre diet give fruits and vegetable . Avoid excyess of cows or buffalo milk and maida containing food . h
Medications like lactulose , milk of magnesia and Peg (muout ) powderare used .
In emergency situation soap water with finger stimulation in rectal area and glycerine suppository can be tried .

Sonam PrasadMom of 2 children3 years agoA. hi dear If your baby seems constipated, consider simple changes to your infant's diet: Water or fruit juice. Offer your baby a small amount of water or a daily serving of 100% apple, prune or pear juice in addition to usual feedings. These juices contain sorbitol, a sweetener that acts like a laxative.
