A. Constipation is usually a very common problem seen in many cases where the most important causative factor is decrease intake of high fibre diet along with lesscder fluid intake. some food like junk food mostly containing maida and oily food can aggravate such condition. diet modification should be tried first followed by medications like lactulose milk of magnesia and PEG .

A. hi mam,first stop giving apple and banana for now. as sometimes ,it can cause constipation in babies. for now ,give fiber rich diet like spinach soup, tomatoes soup, prune juice, fruit like pear papaya plum etc to your child. give massage to your child everyday which will surely help you.
