Pediatrician 's  Response
your daughter needs to examined at pediatric clinic
most of the times these symptoms are thought to be due to functional constipation which means we will need her to have bowel motions daily and it should be soft and not hard
after your doctor take important notes from you and exam the child he may give her some laxatives in the form of syrup
these aren't harmful and the body doesn't absorption them , it will make her stool more soft and easy to pass
I find this answer helpful
