Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. constipation is caused in children either due to decreased water intake or it might be due to decreased fibre intake. sometimes it may be associated with increased water requirement by the body according to the growth of the child. sometimes it may be related to some disease process that is also known as organic constipation. please meet your doctor because according to the cause treatment is given for constipation
constipation in children can be distressing and lead to discomfort. to prevent this condition, it's important to promote a healthy diet rich in fiber, fruits, vegetables, and fluids. encouraging regular physical activity also helps regulate bowel movements and prevent constipation. limiting processed foods and foods high in sugar can also aid in maintaining regularity. additionally, creating a regular bathroom routine and ensuring children have access to clean and comfortable bathroom facilities can help prevdent constipation. if constipation persists despite these measures, consulting a pediatrician is recommended to rule out any underlying medical conditions.
