Toilet trouble for my 5 year old son

2017-10-17 09:21:10
My son will be 5 in two months and when he was roughly 2 he began toilet training and ever since he has had trouble doing a number 2 in the bathroom, in the beginning he held it in due to the pain of it and now I'm not so sure that's the reason, hes been on and off laxidon since the trouble began but it hasn't got any better. I'm wondering if there could be any underlying issues that doctors haven't checked.
