Suggest Treatment For Constipation In Kid

Hi, My 22 month old daughter is constipated for the past 3 days. She had a bowel movement last night and this morning. But it was very painful for her to pass the stool. She was crying all the time. Her stools are hard. Any suggestions to help her? Thank you.

Hello dear,welcome to HealthcareMagic forum.

Just try giving more fruits and veges with high fiber content.Also make her drink enough fluids.
If it does not help by next day,kindly see your pediatrician,as this needs some laxatives to be given.Do not use OTC drugs.
Wishing for a faster cure.
Thank you.
