Severe Constipation
Dear Docs, my daughter who is 1 year 2 months old and 9.5 kg is suffering from severe constipation from last 15 days, we have visited pediatric who suggested Duphalac syrup 10ml once a day, but its not getting cured. Whenever she passes stool she is crying a lot and facing difficulty. The stools are harder like pebble.
Please suggest should we continue with Duphalac or any other medicine or any home remedies which can soothe my baby.
