What Causes Severe Constipation In An Infant?
Hello doctor, I am 32 male from India. My child is 3 months old and he do the potty after interval of 5-6 days and mostly his stool passes very hard and with lot of pain to him.In my family we have a genetic problem of Piles or Haemorrhoids. I also have the same. My question is that is it the same reason why my baby is facing this condition? Or is it normal to do potty in after 4-5 days. And can I give him Combiflam suspension to release his pain? Please Doctor help me. It is unbearable for me to see him paining like this. Regards.

Hello There
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that kindly give him more liquids to drink to help with constipation . And consult a Pediatrition if laxative can be administered.
Hopefully this information will guide you properly.
Kind Regards
