How many times enema can be used in children?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Meal modification: Once in a while.Better yet modify the childs diet by cutting down on milk products and increase fiber in the form of fruit and vegetables, high fiber cereals, and whole wheat bread instead of white bread.You may also use MiraLAX (polyethylene glycol) as needed also instead of enemas.
