The causes of dry stool in children are:
(1) Bad eating habits, such as picky eaters and partial eclipse, especially not eating foods containing more cellulose (fresh vegetables);
2 Some children eat very little, which is easy to cause dry stools.
③ Irregular urination and defecation. Some parents do not pay attention to the habit of defecating regularly every day, and children may defecate every 2-3 days 1 time. If the stool stays in the intestine for a long time, it will be easy to dry and difficult to excrete.
4 Children's lack of exercise is also one of the reasons for dry stool.
What should children do if their stools are dry?
① Parents should make it clear that the treatment of dry stool in children should focus on preventing dry stool. Therefore, it is necessary to advocate reasonable feeding of children, develop good habits of children (no picky eaters, no partial eclipse, regular stool every day), and strengthen physical exercise.
2 Children with dry stools should eat more vegetables and fruits, drink more water, eat more high-fat foods and exercise more, and dry stools will improve.
3 If the child is often constipated, he can take some Chinese medicines for conditioning under the guidance of a doctor, such as Daochidan.
(4) If the child can't be discharged due to dry stool for 3-4 days, parents can take some temporary measures at home, such as stuffing the anus with children's kaisai dew or squeezing a small amount of glycerol. Be careful not to cut the opening of the plug dew uneven or very sharp, so as not to scratch the anus when inserting; Be sure to stay for a few minutes after squeezing glycerin, and then defecate when the child defecates. If you don't have kaisailu, you can drop some water on your head with soft soap at home, which will easily plug it into your anus and reduce your child's panic and discomfort. This is only a last resort.

Constipation is due to the lack of cellulose and a lot of water in the human body, which leads to abnormal gastrointestinal peristalsis, and harmful substances such as metabolites and bacteria in the intestine can not be discharged in time, which can often cause symptoms such as coronary heart disease, hypertension, asthma, fatigue, bitter taste and irritability.
