Question
The baby over one year old hasn’t had a bowel movement for several days, I don’t know what’s going on. The child has been crying and fussing a lot recently. How should I handle this?
Answer
Based on the description, the baby may be constipated due to weak spleen and stomach. This can be improved by increasing nutrition, supplementing vitamins and trace elements, and including easily digestible foods in the diet. Additionally, if the baby is deficient in calcium, it may also cause alopecia and excessive sweating. It is recommended to check for trace elements and appropriately supplement calcium and vitamin D, as well as getting more sunlight exposure to promote calcium absorption.
