[|Human|] My son is 11 years old ad has constant abdominal pain. He has been to his pediatrician SEVERAL times, started a Miralax regimen due to an Xray showing mild constipation. He has a bowel movement everyday, even before the Miralax. He has been tested for a Gluten allergy whicChatDoctore back negative. He was sent to the pediatric ER because pediatrician doesn t know what to do. Their xray show that the constipation was still present, but not as prevalent. She did a rectal exam, the stool was not so hard that it should be causing him discomfort. She suggested a pepcid regimen. Also, to no avail.
[|AI|]  Hi... Thank you for consulting in Chat Doctor. I think your kid is having habitual constipation. I have certain questions and suggestions for you. Questions:1. Did your kid pass motion or meconium on day one of life?2. Since how long is the kid constipated?3. Does the kid have any bleeding along with hard stools?4. How much milk does the kid consume per day?5. Does the kid eat fruits and vegetables (fiber diet) appropriately? Suggestions:1. Natural methods are the best to relieve constipation.2. Constipation is a risk factor for UTI3. Maximum milk consumption per day should not exceed 300-400ml4. Minimum 3-4 cups of fruits and vegetables to be consumed per day5. Toilet training - that is - sitting in Indian type of lavatory daily at the same time will help a lot. Get back to me with answers to above questions.
