How To Treat Constipation With Stomach Pains?

hello, my 7 year old has been complaining of stomach pains and feeling sick for around 4 months after constant back and forth to gp and being told they think she is just faking it she ending up in so much pain we took her to hospital, she was diagnosed with constipation and has been on 2 sachets of movicol for the last 8 weeks.. after about 4 weeks the stomach pains seemed to be fading but this last week they have come back really bad again, the constipation nurse just said to up her medicine, but thismorning she was sick 6 times and it had blood clots in her sick... she is in hospital now but they are thinking of discharging her and they have no idea what has caused her to be sick blood clots... what do you think it could be??

Hello,

Constipation in children may be due to infection or low fiber diet or intake of highly processed food.

Let play well, drink plenty of liquid, feed her with homemade food with plenty of green leafy vegetables.

If symptoms not improved get it done ultrasound abdomen and stool examination.

Then consult your pediatrician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
