My daughter (she is 6)has been saying her butt hole hurts (about a month) and just recently complaining when she farts it hurts and burns. She says her tummy has been hurting. She is complaining to her teacher. Is she constipated? Should I take her to the dr? My other daughter (11 months) has been on miralax for 3 months becuase she wasn t pooping as when she did it would cause her a lot of pain. Could my oldest be experiencing the same thing?
Hi...by what you quote your kid is having a habitual constipation. I have certain questions and suggestions for you. Questions:1. Did your kid pass motion or meconium on day one of life?2. Since how long is the kid constipated?3. Does the kid have any bleeding along with hard stools?4. How much milk does the kid consume per day?5. Does the kid eat fruits and vegetables (fiber diet) appropriately? Suggestions:1. Natural methods are the best to relieve constipation.2. Constipation is a risk factor for UTI3. Maximum milk consumption per day should not exceed 300-400ml4. Minimum 3-4 cups of fruits and vegetables to be consumed per day5. Toilet training - that is - sitting in Indian type of lavatory daily at the same time will help a lot. To answer the questions and guidance - You can approach me at the following link.
