Constipation problem for last two weeks.
Hello dr.
My 3 year old daughter faced problem in passing stool 2 weeks ago. Since then she started avoiding passing stool. I have to force her to do that. But for last 4 days she didn't pass any stool. Even she feels pressure but ignore that. I make her drink lot of water. Feed her fruits also but no relief. Please suggest me what should I do. Is there any syrup or solution in medicine to soften her stool? So that it becomes easy for her. Please suggest.
