A member asked:

What can i do, my 14monthson old son has a fever &i is constipated?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Fever & constipation: If your son's temperature is 101 or over, you can give him a fever reducer. For the constipation (assuming he has not gone in many days), insert a glycerin suppository into his anal canal to induce a bowel movement for temporary relief. In addition, cut his milk intake 24 oz a day - give more fluids, water, juice. Increase fiber by giving him extra vegetables, fruits, and bran cereals, etc.
