A. it is common in kids . Infants may not pass motion daily . It may be 2 to 3 days or may be up to 7 days . No need to use any medication as such but glycerine suppository can be used over the area for lubrication if baby not passed motion for 7 days

A. Hi If it is hard and pasty at the same time then I believe hard is due to the lack of water in body and if it is pasty then it could be due to any other reason could be definitely due to some infection as well if you require then you can get a check with your doctor by getting a stool test done
