Just to add my 2 cents worth again...My son had the same problem from the time he was born to about age 13....As an infant the stools were so enlarged we had to do certain things to get it to come out. we changed his formula so many times finally ending up with a soy formula....
By the time he reached age 7 to 13 he had impacted stools causing so much pain he was taken to the hospital where they had to remove some of it....Finally he was given plenty of water and fiber foods which seemed to help, but I was told over and over again that his intestines needed to be stretched....something about him being a premie and the intestines were underdeveloped....
but in any case a doctor would direct you, and since he is so young there might be alternatives. Does he drink milk and have lots of dairy? that seems to be a culprit..anyway I hope he gets better soon and you get some help for him..
