A. Constipation is usually a very common problem seen in many where the most important causative factor is decrease intake of fiber rich diet along with lesser fluid intake. some food like junk food mostly containing maida and oily food can aggravate such condition. Here the diet modification should be tried first so encourage fibre diet gifhjve fruits and vegetable . Avoid excess of cows or buffalo milk and maida containing food . Medications like lactulose , milk of magnesia and Peg (muout ) powderare used . In emergency situation soap water with finger stimulation in rectal area and glycerine suppository can be tried .

A. But if your child is not passing motion for two or three days does not feel the pressure that means your child is constipated only so for this what you do is apply castor oil in and around the Naval of your child before sleeping and start giving prune juice in the night and also give good amount of liquids in general
