A. constipation in children is common in which diet modification needs to be done like including high fibres in the diet for which you can give seasonal fruits like papaya, watermelon and seasonal vegetables will also help you can give daliya , oatsmeal also to your child which is rich in fibres and nutrients tooo. giving excess of milk may also cause constipation, so you should limit its quantity.also avoid banana which may aggravate .lbbdactulose or polyethylene glycol is of good help, sorbilene is also an option but you should give any medicine or suppository only when prescribed by your pediatrician.. medication is the secondary option.diet modification is the key.plenty of liquids are of great help too.

A. hi as a child feels constipated ,you must offer water at regular intervals. give fiber rich diet like green leafy vegetables i.e spinach ,kale , cucumber , tomato soup etc. you can also prepare juice from soaked black raisins. encourage your child to do more physical activities.
