What is constipation?
There are 4 basic types of constipation described are:
- infrequent stools
- hard stools
- difficulty passing stools (straining)
- sense of incomplete emptying after a bowel movement.
The reason behind each of these “types” of constipation is different, and the strategy for each needs to be customized. Constipation can be followed by diarrhea. This pattern has been associated with the more serious condition of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Also, for the most part, severe cases of constipation happens where total obstruction occurs, where stool solidifies in the rectum and passage of stool is near impossible.
