Question
What should I do if my child’s stool gets stuck at the anal opening and won’t come out?
Answer
If a child hasn’t had a bowel movement for several days, consider using a child’s enema or soap stick to assist with defecation. However, these methods should not be used long-term. Ensure the child drinks enough fluids and perform an clockwise abdominal massage. There are many factors that can lead to pediatric endocrine disorders. If the child is diagnosed with pediatric endocrine disease, parents need to actively cooperate with the doctor’s treatment, including gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should also maintain a reasonable diet, avoiding irritating and cold foods.
