A. Constipation is a common problem in children for 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 moatefre liquids. giving excess of milk may cause constipation too.also avoid banana which may aggravate .lactulose or polyethylene glycol may be of good help,but give any medicine or suppository only when prescribed.

A. Yup But these things are only temporary relief so you can give laxative sometimes if you want to apart from that the best thing that you can do for the child is to start giving warm water to the child in the morning that’s important along with that you should always start giving papaya and good amount of fruits as well
