A member asked:

My 16 mont old daughter has been very constipated for the past couple days and has extremely hard, pebble like white stools. she is otherwise healthy.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Constipation: Make sure she is drinking plenty of water. Give her foods that are high in fiber - lots of vegetables and fruit. Prunes and prune juice really can be very helpful. Limit grains - wheat (bread and pasta) especially. Give mostly fresh, unprocessed foods - avoid foods that come in a box.
