A. For constipation in kids, it's important to focus on increasing fiber intake, ensuring adequate hydration, and encouraging physical activity. Include foods like fruits (apples, pears, prunes), vegetables, whole grains, and legumes in their diet, as these are rich in fiber. Ensure your child drinks plenty of water throughout the day. Regular physical activity, even something as simple as walking or playing, can help stimulate bowel movements. Additionally, encourage your child to establish a regular bathroom routine. If the constipation persists or your child is in discomfort, it's advisable to consult a pediatrician who may recommend a stool softener or other treatment options.
