简要总结
Functional Constipation is considered to be one of the major health issues affecting children in the Paediatric age group and can have detrimental effects on a child’s life. Although it cannot result in life-threatening difficulties, it can produce mental and physical disturbances that raise concerns for children and their families. It can also negatively impact school performance due to a lack of education, which can eventually lower quality of life when it comes to health. Constipation has an incidence of 3% affecting people globally, and the mean prevalence of constipation was 9.5%. This study helps to assess functional constipation using Wexner Constipation scale and efficacy of Calcarea group in treating it.
