A. the age of the child is more than two years of age and the child is suffering from constipation constipation is very common in children and it can occur due to to decrease water intake as well as fibre intake. kindly increase the quantity of water intake and specially add papaya pineapple banana prunes fennel seeds water oats which helps in decreasing constipation and if the problem still continues meet your doctor for constipation medicine
