Constipation

We have all had that belly ache and be unable to use the bathroom. One common reason is due to constipation. The infrequent passage of stool leading to the incomplete evacuation defines constipation. The results of constipation are often straining, hard stools, small stools which all must leave but are a struggle to do so. Constipation may also be accompanied by diarrhea and may be a result of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Perhaps the worst type of constipation is impaction of fecal. 

Diarrhea may occur with constipation as the fluid from your colon may accompany a harder stool. Do not allow the lack of a bowel movement have you believe that you are constipated as some individuals do not have a bowel movement daily and age also slows down the number of bowel movements. Severe constipation should be defined as having only one or fewer bowel movements a week. In addition, irregular bowel movements have been known to lead to cancer 

The reason an individual has constipation can have a variety of reasons. One of the most prevailing one is often caused by indigestion that leads to slow passage of digesting food or problem in the digestive system. Other reasons include irritable bowel syndrome, hypothyroid, spinal cord injury, and diabetes. Perhaps I should say there are a great amount of reasons that constipation occurs ranging from diet, lack of exercise, food we eat and the list goes on

So know that you know what constipation is I know you want it no more than me so here are some ways to get rid of it.
