What is the reason for the dry stool of a ten-month-old baby?

Any of our physical activities require water. If the body lacks water, symptoms such as dry stools, oral inflammation, and skin allergies will occur. Ten-month-old babies have dry stools. On the one hand, it is due to lack of water in the body, and on the other hand, it is due to poor digestion. Let us fully understand the reasons why ten-month-old babies have dry stools.

1. Insufficient beneficial intestinal bacteria

After taking antibiotics or other drugs, the beneficial bacteria in the intestines are destroyed, causing indigestion and constipation.

2. Lack of crude fiber in the diet

Eating out, eating irregularly, and not having time to take in a balanced diet often result in insufficient intake of crude fiber foods, which can easily lead to constipation.

3. Not drinking enough water

If you drink less water on a daily basis, your intestines will be dry and the intestinal contents will not be easily discharged. For some patients, constipation problems are not improved even after drinking more water. This is because the way of drinking water is incorrect. If you drink water slowly, one sip at a time, almost all the water will be absorbed into the blood and excreted from the body through urine. It is recommended to drink plenty of water, especially after getting up in the morning.

4. Sitting for a long time and lack of exercise

If you sit for a long time and lack exercise, your intestinal muscles will become loose, their functions will degenerate, and their peristaltic function will weaken. In addition, women's abdominal muscles are naturally weaker, and the force used to push stool out is small, so they are more prone to constipation. It is particularly common in female patients who engage in sedentary work.

5. Poor bowel habits

When you are busy at work or you are pressed for time in the morning, you may not have a bowel movement in time when you feel the urge to do so, and often hold it in. This can cause the sensory nerves in your rectum to become dull, leading to habitual constipation.

6. Overwork and mental stress

Excessive fatigue and mental stress can inhibit intestinal motility and secretion of digestive juices, leading to indigestion and constipation.

7. Disease

Hemorrhoids, constipation and other diseases are common among the elderly. These diseases can also cause dry stools, leading to the deposition of toxins in the body. Excessive contact between the intestines and toxins and carcinogens increases the risk of intestinal cancer.

The above are the reasons why ten-month-old babies have dry stools. Many babies suffer from severe indigestion due to lack of exercise. In order to avoid such a situation. Not only should we start with the daily eating habits and give the baby more water, but we should also let the baby exercise to promote digestion.
