treatment
:- Constipation is one of the most common problems in children, as children with constipation have less than normal stool or their stools are dry and hard, most cases of constipation in children are temporary, for treatment, it is advised to eat foods rich in fiber such as fruits and vegetables and drink more water about a liter of water per day. Dietary supplements that contain fibers such as Metamucil or strosyl, and lactulose syrup (Duphalac, or Lactugal, or Laevolac), glycerin suppositories can be used, and in difficult cases in which stool accumulates, an enema is used such as enemas that contain polyethylene glycol to help remove the intestinal obstruction, and so on.
Diagnosis:
- Diagnosis is based on symptoms, medical history, clinical examination, placing a finger inside the anus to check the blockage and doing some tests such as X-ray to see if there is a blockage in the abdomen, measuring the coordination of the muscles that the child uses for stool using a rectal catheter, making an X-ray image using a barium enema, and taking Biopsy of the rectum and examination of it under a microscope
Symptoms of constipation in children:
- Defecate less than three times a week
- Stools that are hard and difficult to pass
- Severe pain during bowel movements
- Blood on the child's underwear or on the hard surface
