Yes, swallowing gum can cause constipation! In fact, not just constipation but chronic constipation. It can also cause gas, abdominal pain and canker sores.
In case my knowledge isn't enough, have your friend check out this website:

begin with calling a healthcare professional earlier than you deliver a 2 yr historical a laxitive, it very good might severly dehydrate him, then after the healthcare professional tells you what to do, STOP GIVING A TWO YEAR OLD GUM!! He doesnt understand any greater not to swallow it so it should be as much as you to manipulate what he can get his palms on!
