[|Human|] Hello, My granddaughter is almost 8 years old, her sister 7 and her brother 4 years old. She complains of stomach aches during the day school and in the nights, does not feel she has to poop, and her panties are getting dirty. This is about 2 and half months after the birth of her little baby-sister which is now 3 months old. She does not feel the bowel movment. The kids are getting full attention of their parents and even are very spoiled. Can you advise me how to solve this problem. Thank you
[|AI|]  Hi...what you are quoting is exactly called encopresis. This occurs when the kid has hard stools, almost similar to constipation. But what happens here is the liquid stools will seep out on the sides of the hard stools and leak out. But, the main treatment of this is relieving of constipation. 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. Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Chat Doctor are welcome.
