Constipation is completely a dietary problem. So do these modifications to his diet. Give atleast 1 litre of water and other fluids daily. Give fibre rich diet like banana, boiled carrot and other vegetables and fruits daily. Toilet training is also important. Make him sit in indian squatting position. All medications are temporary only. Use them only with doctors advice.
