Solutions for Children’s Difficulty in Defecating

Children’s difficulty in defecating may be due to excessively dry stools and reduced intestinal peristalsis. Parents can take measures such as encouraging their child to drink more water, ensuring at least 1000 milliliters of fluid intake per day, and increasing the intake of vegetables and fruits to soften the stool. Consider giving the child some oral traditional Chinese medicine for bowel softening as symptomatic treatment. In addition, it is recommended that parents take their child to a regular public hospital for a follow-up visit and undergo an abdominal ultrasound examination to determine the cause of the condition, so that further treatment can be carried out under the guidance of experienced doctors.
