torelieve constipation: encourage more fluids ( water, juices like apple juice, prune juice or liquids in any form). Its a season of mangoes and melons - excellent for constipation. Add carrots, beans, green leafy vegetables to khicdi/ pongal/ rice/ daals to increase the fibre
Next Steps
a fissure seems to have been formed - a mild laxative and a suppository may help with a paediatrician's consult
