Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. 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 . be
medications should be given like lactulose or polyethylene glycol but only in guidance with the doctor.
In emergency situation glycerine suppository or enema is useful.

Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. constipation in children is common 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 to your child which is rich in fibres and nutrients too.
giving excess of milk may also cause constipation, so you should flimit its quantity.also avoid banana which may aggravate .lactulose or polyethylene glycol is of good help, sorbilene is also an alternative but you should give any medicine or suppository onl oky when prescribed by your pediatrician.. medication is the secondary option.diet modification is the key.plenty of liquids are of great help too.
