A member asked:
Can pedialyte help relieve chronic constipation for a 3 year old?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Water: Water will work as well as Pedialyte. If chronic constipation is the problem it may take more than moisture. Increase fiber as much as you can. Best of luck. This is a tricky hurdle but you will get past it.
