Constipation is common in children and can cause discomfort, stomach aches, and changes in appetite.
Common signs include:
✅ Hard, dry, or large stools
✅ Pain during bowel movements
✅ Stomach aches or bloating
✅ Straining or infrequent bowel movements
✅ Irritability or loss of appetite
💡 Encourage plenty of fluids, fiber-rich foods, and regular physical activity to help support healthy digestion.
⚠️ If your child has severe abdominal pain, blood in the stool, vomiting, significant swelling, or constipation that persists, they should be evaluated by a healthcare provider.
