Guest guest Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Hi All, On Sunday, My son, 4yrs, got a hold of a partially eaten banana. It was about 5 inchs long and the top of the banana had been cut off. He managed to eat the banana and most of the peel. I was hoping to see the peel come through him in his stools, but it hasn't yet. He typically has a fairly quick transit time (24-48 hrs). He had no stool on Monday and he had a very large, loose stool yesterday with no pieces in it. Large and loose stools are not uncommon for him. I really don't think his body will digest the peel as he has gotten small amounts before and it has come through him. He doesn't digest skins well as the skins of most fruits (cherries, bluberries, etc pass through). He does seem to have some abdominal bloating and tenderness, but again, that's not entirely unusual. Is it time to call the pediatrician?? Should I give it more time?? He isn't running a temperature and hasn't really vommitted although he had some reflux this morning and that is a little unusual. Any guidance is appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 , Make sure he's drinking lots of water. Bananas, surprisingly, are somewhat constipating. You may wish to give him some vitamin C or increase the amount you are giving. Abdominal massage in the direection of the intestines may also be helpful.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Also, please start using an Essiac formula (Flor*Essence is the brand I trust). to detox your cat. I have six felines (2 m, 4 F). The Flor*Essence may gently break up the tumor or obstruction. I've used it with my cats to cure their cancers and other infections. My cat has a bowel obstruction. Will the machine work on him and what frequncies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
