Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXX,
I can understand your concern
Yes,travelling can affect the bowel movements of child.
If she does not pass stools for 2-4 days which is normal in children also no need to worry.
The most common cause of constipation in children is stool withholding.They will not show interest to pass stools especially during travelling.
I would like to know
Has she noticed any blood after passing stool?
Does she feel pain while passing stools or abdominal pain?
Does she feel discomfort in abdomen or bulging of abdomen when she does not pass stool?
Is she passing hard or soft stools?
You can easily prevent constipation by doing changes in her food habits.
Encourage her to consume more water.
Consuming sweets,chocolates and maida based food like noodles,pasta,fast food can cause constipation.Cook the way she likes to eat.
Give her healthy vegetables, fruits like banana ,orange and fiber contains food.
Kindly get back to me with details.
If you have any queries I will be happy to help you.
