Q Can constipation recur after treatment?
A It can recur if dietary habits and stress are not managed. We prevent recurrence with preventive prescriptions before seasonal changes.
Detailed Answer
Childhood constipation tends to recur during life changes such as changes in food, environmental stress, moving, or starting school. Even after treatment ends, it is good to check the condition at 3-6 month intervals and repeat short-term prescriptions when necessary.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
At Dongjedang, we recommend preventive prescriptions during seasonal transitions even after full recovery. Keeping digestive function strong is the key to preventing recurrence.
