My granddaughter is 7 years old. She does not feel it when she makes a bowel movement . She has Goldenhar Syndrome and was born with a twisted intestine which was corrected at 6 days old. She has had 10 facial surgeries. Had feeding tube for 13 months after birth. The bowel situation when going into 3rd grade is becoming an emotional problem.

Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi Dear
Thanks for your query,
My suggestion at least to alleviate the symptoms;-
*Use excess Fiber in food like (fruits without peeling, avoid Maida, Excess sugar,excess diluted Honey,plenty of water.
**Try to make once daily particular timings for defecation.(encourage her to strain for some time daily)
*** Use some lubricant jelly locally. (In & around the anus) before straining so that there is should be some stimulation to anal part of the intestine.
Hope you will be in better position.
Thanks
