Constipation in children is commonly characterized by infrequent bowel movements or difficulty passing stools. Children may experience abdominal pain, bloating, and discomfort, often leading to irritability and decreased appetite. They may exhibit signs of straining, crying, or withholding stool. Stool consistency can vary, with hard, dry, or pellet-like stools being common. 

Children may also have accidents or soiling due to impacted stool in the rectum. Factors contributing to childhood constipation include inadequate fluid intake, low-fiber diet, lack of physical activity, and emotional stress. Early recognition and management are crucial to prevent complications and promote regular bowel habits, which may involve dietary adjustments, increased fluid intake, and sometimes medication under medical supervision.
