General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms of your child seem to be related to constipation.

I see that you have already used laxatives without effects.

I suggest using enemas to treat constipation.

I also suggest giving liquids and a fiber-rich diet.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
