Question

What baby foods can help relieve constipation?

Answer

You can use pediatric enemas or soap sticks to help with defecation, but it is not recommended to use them long-term. It’s important to keep the baby well-hydrated and perform a clockwise abdominal massage for the newborn, which can help improve constipation issues. In terms of treatment, it is suggested to use pediatric Qixing Tea and add honey, juice, or vegetable juice to the water, as these can aid in defecation. Regular abdominal massage for the newborn can also promote digestion and improve gastrointestinal function.
