A. Constipation is usually a very common problem seen in many where the most important causative factor is decrease intake fiber rich diet along with lesser fluid intake. some food like junk food mostly containing maida and oily food can aggravate such confrditiont. here the diet modification should be tried first followed by medications like lactulose milk of magnesia and muout powder.

A. Remedies to Try at Home Make sure your child is getting enough fluids. Most kids need about 3 to 4 glasses of water every day. Add more fiber into your child's diet. Make sure they're eating enough fruits, grains and vegetables.
