Constipation
Constipation is when a person is not passing stools, or poo, regularly, or cannot completely empty their bowels.
Constipation is a common problem and can affect people of any age, but is more common in older age and pregnancy.
causes of constipation
Our busy, modern lifestyles may be responsible for most cases of constipation: not eating enough fibre or drinking enough water, not getting enough exercise, and not taking the time to respond to an unmistakable urge to go to the toilet.
Emotional and psychological problems can contribute to the problem. Persistent, chronic constipation may also be a symptom of health conditions, including irritable bowel syndrome, colorectal cancer, diabetes, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, an under-active thyroid gland and depression.
