Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children4 years agoA. constipation in children is common in which diet modification is required that is 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 aggravatble .lactulose 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.

Sai Prasanthi R LMom of a 11 yr 6 m old boy4 years agoA. Hello dear parent! Ideally it should be given with milk. Would suggest you to consult your doctor for further advice. Clarify all your concerns and follow your doctor’s advice diligently. Give your child a well balanced healthy diet and keep hydrated. Increase the liquid intake and fibre intake of your child. Good luck and take care.
