Question
How to handle baby’s constipation problem?
Answer
Based on your description, your baby’s constipation may be caused by a slow-moving colon. In this case, the structure, function, enteric plexus (enteric brain), and intracolonic volume of the colon may all directly affect colonic peristalsis. Any factor that slows down colonic peristalsis may lead to the appearance of constipation symptoms. To improve this situation, it is recommended that you take your baby to the hospital for a check-up to determine if medication treatment is necessary. At the same time, it is very important to adjust your baby’s lifestyle and dietary habits, as these methods can achieve more significant therapeutic effects.
