An enema for children is a procedure performed by inserting a small amount of fluid through the rectum into the colon to treat constipation or to support other diagnostic and therapeutic methods. Performing enema properly helps to reduce pain and discomfort for children and better support doctors in diagnosing and treating diseases.

Enema is a procedure that introduces water through the anus into the colon to soften and loosen stools, and at the same time widen the bowel wall. The stimulated intestinal wall will contract, pushing the stool out. This procedure is performed to support the diagnosis and treatment of some common diseases in the colon and rectum.
