1. This morning I cried because I had a stomach ache. I've been sitting on the toilet for a long time. “Mom, my stomach hurts so bad!!”
2. I've been trying to defecate for three days, but I can't. My stomach also felt hard as a rock.
3. My mother finally took me to the hospital to be examined by a doctor.
4. The doctor said I was constipated or having difficulty defecating.
5. Constipation can be caused by lack of fiber or fluids. These few days, I really don't eat fruit and vegetables as usual.
6. The doctor said “Vegetables and fruits contain fiber which can help bowel movements become smooth. Our bodies need nutrition from vegetables and fruits every day.
7. In addition, the doctor also asked me to drink lots of water. “Water is very good for our body. Water can make the poop softer and easier to pass,” explained the doctor to me.
8. The doctor gave me medicine. When I got home, I drank it.
9. Not long after that, I can defecate and healthy again.
10. It turns out that constipation is very painful. I promise to diligently drink water, eat fruit and vegetables. Just like the doctor told me.
