What Is The Cure For Constipation Of A 10 Month Baby?
I have a 10 months baby girl but she has been experiencing severe constipation with blood in fact she does not want the action she carries a lot when opening her bowel. This has worried me. She not good at feeding she only wants breast milk and water.
Hi, Thank you for asking question on health care magic. children who are solely on milk feeds do have constipation. You should feed her with high residue and fiber containing foods like whole wheat bread and leafy vegetables and juicy fruits. Plenty of water to drink. As far as practicable stool softeners and cathartics should not be used. In case of emergency milk of magnesia and dulcolax suppository may be tried. Hope this answer will serve your purpose Please feel free to ask any more queries if required Take care Dr.M.V.Subrahmanyam MD;DCH Associate professor of pediatrics
