Need Medicine For Constipation In Baby
My 3 year had diarrehea on Thursday, then Friday diarrehea went away then she was throwing up, now she hadn't had a bowel movement the last 2 days I just put an enema up her butt and her bowel was grey and hard balls what could it be? She usually has a bowel movement 1-2 times a day.

Hi ,
Thanks and welcome to healthcare magic.
Constipation is defined as less than 4 motions per week.
If the child has not passed motion for 1-2days they pass hard masses.
Latulose 5 ml twice daily will regularize the bowel movement .
Hope this reply is OK for you.
Please feel free to ask further queries if any.
