Suggest Treatment For Irregular Bowel Movements And Vomiting
Yes my 5 year old daughter has had issues pooping in the potty and tries to holds it in as much as possible. She has 1 or 2 giant bowel movements a week, the last few days she has not gone but has been having small hard b.m.. accidents in her undies. This morning she was crying that her poopy won t come out on the potty. Today she has thrown up 4 times, and complained of stomach pains. My mother brought over pedia-lax which she took almost 5 hours ago and no bm yet, warm food, tubby books, no poop! Seeing all this written out I have decided I will call my MD

Hi,
From history it seems that she might be having absolute constipation giving this problem.
She might require application of pediatric suppositoires to get her bowel.
Afterwards give her mild laxative daily at night for few days.
give her plenty of water.
Give her more fiber containing diet.
Ok and take care.
