Suggest Treatment For Severe Constipation Problem And Penis Pain
My son has serious constipation issues. We are going to bring him to see a GI peds dr. those apts take forever to get and my son who is 8 is now complaining that the tip of his penis hurts when he poops. His stool is currently soft because he has been taking magnesium citrate and miralax. I thought it was because he was pushing but that should no longer be an issue
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per your history, I think may be due to constipation. You can give tab. dulcolax rectally after consultation. Keep him hydrated. He may require syp. mefenamic acid after consultation with pediatrician.
Take care.
