About this article[edit]

I moved content here from constipation because I felt like the information focused on children was WP:UNDUE there and also because it seems like there are enough sources of information to justify having an entire article focused on children.

The information which I used to establish this article came from the July 2017 version of the original article. Blue Rasberry (talk) 19:08, 11 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I just forked this content off to be its own article. I pulled these recent articles about constipation in children so that this article would get off to a strong start. I added all of these to the article. Blue Rasberry (talk) 19:15, 11 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The following looks like it could be used as a citation to explain why the Rome III Criteria is useful in defining as well as diagnosing constipation in paediatric patients. ^[1] — Assignment last updated by EriyanTurtle (talk) 15:42, 22 November 2022 (UTC) EriyanTurtle (talk) 00:25, 25 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
