1. Rule out 'anal fissure'.2. Give plenty of water, preferably sweetened water (can add some glocone c of plain glucose). 3. Milk of magnesia: 4 ml thrice a day. (maxm for 5 days) 4. If it works then its okay. Once in while is can be given. Not very frequently.

Hi. This is a common problem with this age children so do not get upset. One important point to remember is child should not be standing while passing stool. Give your child 1/2 to 1 spoon of 'mu out' powder at bed time each day till child starts passing normal stools. Then slowly withdraw the medicine over a weeks time. 90% children do respond to this remedy. Will be happy if you feed back.
