Question
What should be done if a 19-month-old baby has chronic constipation?
Answer
Baby constipation is generally related to insufficient water intake, excessive milk consumption, and low intestinal function. It is recommended to give the child more honey water and increase the intake of vegetable puree and fruit puree. If the constipation is severe, use a glycerin suppository to help with bowel movements. Additionally, consider giving the baby symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication such as Qizhen Wan to help relieve constipation issues. We hope the baby grows up healthily!
