Overview of Constipation
Constipation may occur when you find it difficult to pass bowel movements or do not have a bowel movement more than three days. Typical signs of this health issue include hard or lumpy stools, straining in bowel movements, and feeling like you cannot empty the bowels fully. Constipation occurs from time to time, and it is often not a cause for major concern. However, if you have it for a long time, you would have chronic constipation. If left untreated, it would result in further complications, such as rectal prolapse, fecal impaction, anal fissures, or haemorrhoids. [2]
