Toddler constipation and withholding
GP prescribed
movicol
but is very difficult to find the right balance. She sometimes leaks small amounts of poo all day and other days will do one big poo (but nearly always in her knickers and she will try and stop the poo coming). Nothing seems to motivate her! Any advice?!

4yo lost feeling during horrid bout of painful constipation... should I be worried?
Son has been on
movicol
since he was a baby and has had approximately 4 bouts of horribly painful constipation in his life so far. We ran out of
movicol
on holiday 🤦♀️, so went without for a few days... and then went over a week without bowel movements after the first painful poo (withholding).

4 year old withholding -movicol advice needed
After reading several of the posts on here, it’s seems quite clear that I need to start her on
movicol
. Has anyone started this without being advised to by the doctor? My concern with this is she only drinks water. She drinks a lot of it but is very particular about tastes and trying new things.

HELP! Opinions needed on 8 year old daughter in severe pain when passing soft stools?
On occasions she has clearly been constipated and eventually passed large amounts of poo following a few days of
movicol
treatment. We are hesitant to give her regular large doses of
Movicol
as more often than not she is in pain but only passes small amounts of very soft/sticky poo.

Symptoms for six months
The problem is so bad, I can barely open my bowel at all, unless I take sachets of
movicol
. I have recently had some blood in my stools. My tummy is very bloated. Occasionally I feel sick and last week I was very sick, although I have no problems eating or drinking.

Constipation or impaction?
She got very ill on the disimpaction dosage and ended up in a and e and were told to stop the
movicol
. Two weeks later she was constipated again, a gap of 4 days then 2 very hard large poo. So we are back on
movicol
at 3 sachets a day and she has loose, runny poo.

Advice for chronic functional constipation
We are lucky in that he takes the medication well (senna 15ml and
movicol
three sachets a day). We are now at a stage where we feel he is clear of poo but he still refuses to go himself to the toilet. Some days he will by himself the next he won’t even when asked to sit and try.

My daughters weight loss is worrying me
She’s been to the doctors numerous times and been given fibrogel,
movicol
, various things to try and get her bowels moving.which hasn’t really worked. She’s now been sent for blood tests and all has come back normal but she still can’t poo normally.
