A. Constipation is a problem where there is difficulty in passing the stools and it could be very hard leading to sometimes injury and it becomes a chronic condition in most of the cases if not treated properly . most important thing is a proper diet with good fibre and plenty of liquids . Also avoidance of food which can aggravate the condition like Banana excess of milk and food with maida and junk . medications should be given like lacctulose or polyethylene glycol but only in guidance with the doctor. f In emergency situation glycerine suppository or enema is useful.

A. Yes There could be a possibility certain times kids can have this constipation issue with the iron supplement that you have mentioned if your child is suffering with constipation already then you should consult your doctor and please ask them to change the supplement for Iron at least
