Talk to Pediatrician on Extreme Constipation
Asking For Other, Male 2, Johar Town Lahore
My son had started showing extreme Constipation four months ago. I had taken him to few doctors and have bee giving him medicine like Skylux drops and Duphalac Syrup with few home remedies. One week he is normal(two days gap) and next week he has to be inserted with Micro Enema when condition worsens, stool is hard after 3 days. He is loosing weight also. Is there anything that I am missing in his medicine or treatment?

Thank you for using this forum, patient’s age is 2 years right ? Do they have some blood test or imaging done ? Constipation is all about diet routine and toilet training. I wish he has good toilet training with all medications. You need to book an appointment for detailed management and medications
Thank you.
Child must get plenty of water2 use of fruits and vegetables along with salad 3 wheat fiber not be removed .Dry fruit consisting of Angeer and Duphlac Syrup for some days.
You need to give more fluids, vegetables and fruit to your child. You may also try Ispaghul husk mixed with water or milk,Give at bed time
This is simple Functional constipation need not too much treatment.
1. dietary modifications, stop dairy products, bakery items.
2. More vegetables and fruits, plus fibre food.
3. fresh juices and milk shakes.
4. syrup Fibo one teaspoon twoce a day for 3 months
4. syrup prulex one teaspoon twice a day for 3 months
5. no laxative or enema.
6. put your baby daily is warm water
if still all not works after one month visit nearby pedriaticain
will be fine dont worry
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern. Constipation as such tender age might be caused by many causes, some of which might be food related. But continuous complains need detailed history and a proper clinical examination. You have been doing right till now but your kid's complaints need clinical evaluation so that any anatomic abnormality can be ruled out.
Regards
Need more symptoms and history to diagnose the issue then its treatment so better is to take appointment through marham for proper treatment
