What should I do if my child’s stool is very coarse?

This is mainly due to the slow peristalsis of the child’s intestines, which prevents the stool from being discharged in time and accumulates in the body to form thicker stools. Usually you can give your child a hot compress and massage on the abdomen to promote intestinal peristalsis, which can relieve the constipation. You can also add probiotic preparations to your child to regulate the intestinal flora, for example, Mamie’s Love, Pfeiffer, etc. are good choices. If constipation exists, add more foods rich in plant fiber to your child’s diet, such as apples, celery, dragon fruit, etc. If defecation is particularly difficult, you can also add lactulose oral solution to your child, which is to promote defecation and can be discontinued after your child’s stools have been normal for a period of time.
