Q.

#AskTheExpert #Mamypoko Doctor, My child is 5.2 yrs old and since he was 3yrs he is suffering from constipation. As per doctors advise he has been on medicines like MOut as well as Livoluk but there is still no relief. He is not doing daily rather he prefers doing in a gap of 2-3 days. Is it good? Inspite of making him sit daily on pot, he only does when he feels like doing. Doctor, pls suggest if it is normal or does it require medication?

A. you can always increase the dosage of medicine for constipation of your child and try to give plenty of water and fibre diet and this problem will only improve with increasing age of the child.

A. Hi Less intake of water and fiber food is the reason for constipation. Try to give adequate water to ur child in a day. It helps in stool softening. Also papaya, oats, pear, plum, carrot, cabbage, atta are rich source of fiber that helps to get relief from Constipation. Avoid giving bakery food,
