No regular stool passing
Hello doctor
My son is 4 year old.
He passes stools once in 2 to 3 days Everytime . Or only if he gets stools that time only going. He goes to school regularly but in the morning when we ask him to pass stools he says it's not coming even after sitting for 10 minutes.
He never complaint of any problem like stomach pain Eve if he passes stools 2 to 3 days once. He also take food normally
and needed quantity.
Is this normal to pass stools 3 days once ? What we need to to make to pass stools daily for him ?
Regards
Jegan

If he is comfortable, eats food properly, doesn't have hard stools then, it is nothing to worry. Give him good amount of water, vegetables and fruits. Avoid maida items, apples, pomegranate, banana, excess milk, Bournvita, Complan, Pediasure, etc.
