Chronic constipation needs proper evaluation in babies If she is feeling pain it will lead to further constipation. Anovate cream contains an anesthetic agent so can give symptomatic relief but at the same time it can cause irritation burning and itching due to steroid component. Better to avoid at this age.
Next Steps
consult with pediatrician for evaluation of chronic constipation
