First of all, we need to clarify what is considered constipation. For babies, having less than 2 bowel movements a week, or having great difficulty in having each bowel movement, and having hard stools like goat poop, can be considered constipation. The main causes of constipation in children are psychological and dietary. Parents force their children to defecate in order to train them to form good habits of regular defecation, or a particular defecation is particularly painful, which can cause the child to be psychologically repulsed by defecation, which in turn makes the child not to defecate and form constipation. Careless dietary regulation such as drinking less water, eating more dry goods such as melon seeds is also likely to trigger defecation difficulties. 1, let the child realize that defecation is a very natural and beneficial thing for the body, do not have a rejection of defecation. 2, drink more water or eat fruit rich in juice can be, to ensure that the child daily at least 1000ml of water intake. 3, the diet can eat more fiber-rich vegetables, such as celery, pumpkin, etc., as far as possible to eat less refined rice and flour. 4, for older children, increase the amount of activity. You can massage the abdomen clockwise on an empty stomach, or push straight from under the glabella to the pubic symphysis to promote intestinal peristalsis. 4, if after the above psychological implication and diet modification, exercise, massage still does not improve, should be under the guidance of the doctor to use drug therapy. Western medicine to lactulose, for example, are from an initial dose, a dose lasted a week, if there is no improvement, then increase the dosage until the child can be normal bowel movements. 5, Chinese medicine evidence that most of the children with spleen and stomach disorders, according to the situation to strengthen the spleen, spleen, heat, laxative and other treatment, has a better therapeutic effect, but also with massage, Chinese medicine compress umbilical, the effect is more obvious.
