Question
A two-and-a-half-year-old daughter has been experiencing difficulty defecating for the past week, with hard stools. Today, she had blood in her stool. How should this situation be handled?
Answer
This condition may be caused by constipation. It is recommended to use children’s Qijian pills for opsonize. If there is a fecal impaction, 5 to 10 milliliters of glycerin suppository can be inserted into the rectum to stimulate the rectum and promote defecation. At home, you can use a soap bar or insert your fingers wearing rubber gloves, dipped in a little petroleum jelly or Vaseline, into the rectum to aid defecation. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you and your daughter. Wishing you both good health.
