Question
I am a 43-year-old woman who recently discovered that my child is not feeling well. After checking, it turns out they have a condition. How should one typically deal with children’s constipation?
Answer
The constipation that the baby is experiencing is mainly due to the intestines lacking moisture and moving slowly, so it is recommended to treat the condition actively. It is best to drink more water and, at the same time, perform clockwise abdominal massage to enhance and stabilize bowel movement, which can exceed the effect of laxatives. Moreover, patients need to maintain a regular diet and lifestyle, adjust their physical and mental health, and stay positive in life. They should eat more light, soft foods, drink plenty of water, and also consume more vegetables and fruits.
