Question

What should I do if my child can’t pass stool?

Answer

When a child’s stool is dry, dietary precautions should be taken. Excessive protein intake, supplementation with calcium and zinc, or overly refined diets, as well as certain medications (especially antibiotics), can lead to hard stools. It is recommended to increase the intake of green vegetables and fruit juices (such as orange juice, pear juice, or carrot juice), and consider taking a golden bifid factor in the morning, dissolved in warm water.
