Question
The baby has very hard stool, only defecating once every two or three days, and the anus is swollen. Can the baby eat honey? What treatments have been received in the past and how effective were they? No treatment has been received, hoping for what kind of help? Want to know how to manage the baby’s condition.
Answer
When a child experiences hard stool and a swollen anus, it is often due to digestive dysfunction and endocrine imbalance, leading to dyspepsia. This is a common issue and does not require excessive worry. You can give the child some probiotics, which have no significant side effects on children and are quite effective in promoting intestinal digestion. Additionally, feeding on a schedule, with smaller meals more frequently, is recommended. Drinking a little honey water can also be a good method.
