There are many possible causes of constipation, including eating small meals due to dieting, lack of water, a worsening intestinal environment, holding in the urge to defecate, weakening intestinal peristalsis with age, lack of exercise, mental stress, and the effects of medication.
When constipation continues for a while, symptoms such as abdominal bloating, rough skin such as pimples and acne, headaches, stiff shoulders, loss of appetite, irritability, and insomnia might appear.
Constipation can be broadly divided into"Functional constipation" and"Organic constipation"."Functional constipation"
"Functional constipation" is constipation caused by an unbalanced diet, lack of water, lack of exercise, mental stress, the effects of medication, etc.
"Functional constipation" is further divided into three types:1) atonic constipation, 2) spastic constipation, and 3) rectal constipation,and What is commonly referred to as constipation is functional constipation.
1) atonic constipation
Stool is transported to the rectum by peristaltic movement of the large intestine, but when the muscles of the large intestine relax and peristaltic movement weakens, it is no longer transported smoothly and constipation occurs.
2) spastic constipation
Constipation occurs when autonomic nervous system disorders caused by stress etc. cause the peristaltic movement of the large intestine to become discontinuous, and it takes too long for stool to pass through.
3) Rectal constipation
When stool from the large intestine enters the rectum, we feel the urge to defecate, but if you overuse laxatives or habitually hold in your constipation, you won't feel the urge to defecate even when stool reaches the rectum.
On the other hand,"organic constipation" s constipation that is directly caused by diseases of the large intestine, such as colorectal cancer or colitis.
To improve organic constipation, it is necessary to treat the underlying disease, so we recommend that you visit a medical institution.
