A member asked:
What can i give a 2 year old to help poop? its been 3 days now .
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pain?: Three days is not bad if your child is comfortable. Toddlers may have periods of stool withholding if there is a fissure or constipation. Follow Dr. Lipkin's advice for constipation. If your child is straining or in pain, see your pediatrician. Other methods should be used with doctor's supervision. If your child is happy, the problem is likely to resolve itself over the next 2 days
