How should 1-year-old baby cope with constipation?

One year old baby constipation should be how to deal with? Infantile constipation is a common disease, its reasons are many, can be divided into two categories, one is functional constipation, this kind of constipation after conditioning can be cured; the other is congenital intestinal malformation caused by constipation, this kind of constipation through general conditioning is not cured, must be corrected by surgery. The vast majority of infantile constipation is functional.

If the baby's diet is too little, there will be less residue after digestion and less natural stool. If the sugar content in milk is insufficient, the stool can be dried. If the diet is insufficient for a long time, it will lead to malnutrition, lack of strength in abdominal and intestinal muscles, unable to defecate and stubborn constipation. The nature of stool is related to food composition. If the food contains a lot of protein and lacks carbohydrates (sugar and starch), the stool will be dry and the frequency of defecation will be less; if the food contains more carbohydrates, the frequency of defecation will increase and the stool will be thin and soft; if the food contains high fat and carbohydrates, the stool will be lubricated. Some fine foods lack of dross, which can easily cause constipation after eating. Some children's life is irregular, and they don't have the habit of defecating on time, which makes it difficult to develop the conditioned reflex of defecation, leading to the weakness of bowel muscles and constipation. In addition, suffering from certain diseases, such as malnutrition, rickets, can make bowel dysfunction, abdominal muscle weakness or paralysis, constipation can also appear.

Infants generally defecate 1-2 times a day, the stool is soft, if two to three days do not understand defecation, and other conditions are good, it may be general constipation. But if there is abdominal distension, abdominal pain, vomiting and other circumstances, it can not be considered as general constipation, should be sent to the hospital for examination in time. Children defecate once a day is normal, but some children defecate once every two to three days, and the stool is soft and large, which is also normal. After children's constipation, the defecation is dry and hard. The hard feces stimulate the anus to produce pain and discomfort. For a long time, children are afraid of defecating and dare not defecate. This makes the feces in the intestines more dry and the symptoms of constipation more serious.

The incidence of constipation in breast fed infants was less than that in artificial feeding infants. If constipation occurs, you can add orange juice, sugar or honey while feeding human milk. Milk fed infants with constipation can reduce the total amount of milk, increase the amount of sugar in milk to 8% - 10%, and add orange juice, pineapple juice, jujube juice or cabbage water to stimulate intestinal peristalsis.

At present, there are not many constipation caused by malnutrition, mainly caused by excessive nutrition and improper food collocation. Many children's parents blindly increase their children's nutrition, so that the quality of protein in food is very high, while vegetables are relatively high

Less. Nowadays, with the rapid development of children's food industry, many high-grade children's food are fine grain products, lack of dregs, children rarely eat coarse fiber and dregs, which easily lead to constipation.

For infants, reasonable food collocation can not only prevent the occurrence of constipation, but also has a good therapeutic effect on constipation. The proportion of fish, meat, eggs and grains in the food should be appropriate. Eat more vegetables and fruits. Children can eat some food made of corn flour and rice flour. To train children to develop the habit of defecation on time.

For children with constipation, the following simple methods can be used:

1. Massage: four fingers of the right hand together, in the child's navel, gently massage clockwise. This will not only help defecate, but also help digestion.

2. Soap bar defecation method: use soap to sharpen it into a pencil thick and 3cm long soap bar, wet it with water and insert it into the baby's anus, which can stimulate the intestinal wall and cause defecation.

3. Salted radish strip defecation method: cut the radish strip into a pencil thick strip, and insert it into the anus after soaking in salt water, which can promote defecation.

4. Kaiselu: injecting Kaiselu into the anus of children can stimulate the intestinal wall and cause defecation.
