A. constipation is common problem in children in which diet modification is important like including high fibres in the diet for which you can give seasonal fruits like papaya, watermelon and seasonal vegetables will also help , can give daliya or oatsmeal also .give more liquids. giving excess of milk may cause constipation too.also avoid banana which may aggravate .lactulose or polyethylene glycol is of good help,give any medicine or s;tcuppository only when prescribed.

A. hi constipation is caused by inadequate intake of fluids and low fiber diet so first , maintain good hydration give fiber rich food like spinach soup, tomatoes soup, prune juice, fruit like pear papaya plum banana etc to your child. give warm milk with one tbsp of ghee daily before sleep time
