My 7 Year Old Son Have The Problem Of Constipation
My 7 year old son have the problem of constipation once in a while. He does not drink water properly. Once he had constipation and had to give him enema for that. The constipation was resolved that time. But still he cries while passing stools and the stools are very hard.

Make sure your child drinks enough water. If he is not drinking water that much, give him juices and some mix drinks like rasna/tang etc, as children love to have colorful drinks, atleast in that way they consume water.
