Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Due to irregular food habits and immature digestion system, it is a common presentation for the children to have constipation.

Treating constipation in children should be by natural remedies like fibre XXXXXXX foods or castor oil.

Fibre XXXXXXX foods like oats, XXXXXXX leafy veg, apples, raw vegetables etc has to be a major part of her diet this will ensure easy bowel transit and enough water in the intestines to have a easy stool.

Also do give her a spoon of clean Medicated Castor oil available in pharmacies specially in the night for three days. Castor oil is not digested but helps as an lubricant to the food material and helps in preventing constipation.

Hope I answered your query.

Wish you good health.

regards,
