New born is not pooping since 3days

Dear Dr, My son is 41 days old, he has not passed stools since 3 days. I have gone through few articles regarding constipation in baby and saw even if he dont pass motion for 8 days also it fine but what when he passes it will be painful and straining for him right? Any remedies to make him to poop? I have done tummy excercises already, he is farting but not passing motion, now his fart smells also 😔. His pee count is 10+ and he is under ebf. Thanks in advance!

Is the constipation associated with abdominal distension and vomiting? If yes then consult a pediatrician nearby you. If not then wait and watch or give glycerine suppository 1/2 stat . Do you have any thyroid issues? Get his free t4 and TSH done. Thank you Dr Aditi Birje MD Pediatrics KEM HOSPITAL MUMBAI Shree Gurumaauli Pediatric Clinic Yogi Nagar Borivali West Mumbai
