A no. of toddlers develop constipation during the time of potty training. Increase the fluids and roughage in his diet.You can add Syp looz - 5 ml twice daily for a month or so. If problem is severe get an X ray abdomen and TSH done after consulting a nearby paediatrician

Hello. Is this a recurrent thing or is acute in onset, means happening since last 2 weeks only ? Is he passing stools after suppository or not ?
This could be functional constipation but other pathologies/complications to be ruled out. You should visit a nearby pediatrician for thorough history and clinical examination. X ray abdomen, TSH, dietary history, any history of bleeding PR should be ruled out.
Next Steps
Can start with Mu-Out or laxopeg FC oral solution 10 ml BD
