Help for my son?


Question:
I have a 13 yr old boy who battles chronic constipation. Does anyone have any ideas to help clean his system out. We have tried prune juice laxatives eventually all the time he ends up staying a week in the hospital to get an ng tube and his body flushed. Please help he's tired of going into the hospital.

Answers:
My 14 yr old daughter had the same problems until our neighbor told us about colon cleansing. It costs about $80, and it you decide on how many times you want it done. It's safe and natural, and no pills to take. I'm not sure who does it in your area, but you can call around to places that sell holistic stuff. Good luck. I know how horrible it is. Just try it once and see if you and him think it's worth continuing.
Have you every tried Super Colon Cleanse? It is a great product and is definately worth a try.

What does his doctor suggest? I hope you aren't just taking him to the hospital and then no follow up with his doctor. Sounds like he has a chronic intestinal problem that has to be medically treated. Could be Crohn's or IBS.

I am sorry to hear that. I was like your son when I was young the difference is that then, there were not so many options as there are now.

Did the doctor tell you about the prune juice or you are trying to solve the problem by yourself?

It seems to me like you need to take your kid to a good gastroenterologist
Have you tried changing his diet? No cheese. High fiber. Whole grain bread. A lot of veggies.

What does your doctor say? If nothing find another one. And see a nutritionist for his diet.
He should not be on a diet of junkfood. You should speak with his doctor. He could probably stand to drink more water.

You should talk to a nutritionist at the hospital to put him on a proper diet.
Green leafy veggies, also an herbal vitamin before bed after dinner, and lots of water should keep him from being constipated
