Next Constipation is a condition that is characterized by infrequent bowel movements that are painful or difficult, or stools that are hard in consistency. Infrequent bowel movements alone are not a reliable indicator of constipation because bowel frequency can vary between three times a day to three times a week among normal individuals. Therefore, hard stools that are difficult to pass or infrequent stools accompanied by abdominal pain, back pain, and abdominal bloating define important constipation. There are many causes of constipation including: Diets that are low in fiber. Fiber is vegetable material that is resistant to digestion. It promotes soft stools by adding bulk to the stool and causing water to be retained in stool Side effects of medications such as narcotic pain killers, antidepressants, iron supplements, calcium channel blockers (a class of medications for high blood pressure), and certain types of antacids.

Extractions: Medical information for patients index search health books site map Constipation is the term used to describe difficulty going to the toilet or opening the bowels. We probably all suffer from this for short periods during our lives, but for some it becomes a chronic or recurrent problem. Some people would regard it as normal to open their bowels three or four times a day, while for others normality would be once a week. Certainly, the human body can function quite well at either extreme, but most people probably open their bowels every day or every couple of days. It is wise not to get obsessed by the need to open the bowels daily, but if you experience a change of bowel habit that persists then you should seek the advice of your doctor. Change of diet or dehydration and a change of daily schedule may lead to constipation. Certain medications, especially some pain killers, may lead to problems. Sometimes the cause is a bowel disorder, but this is the exception rather than the rule. Over recent years it has become apparent that people who eat more fibre are less prone to various bowel diseases and also are likely to be healthier in other ways. Fibre tends to diminish transit time (ie the length of time it takes for something that is eaten to pass right through the system) and thus reduce constipation. Funnily enough, if you take more fibre it will tend to

Extractions: Over US$240,000 has been donated since the drive began on 19 August. Thank you for your generosity! Constipation is a condition of the digestive system where a person (or other animal) experiences hard feces that is difficult to eliminate ; it may be extremely painful, and in extreme cases ( fecal impaction ) lead to symptoms of bowel obstruction . Causes may be dietary hormonal and anatomical. Treatment is with a change in dietary habits, laxatives enemas , and rarely surgery edit In common constipation, the stool is hard and difficult to void. Straining may cause hemorrhoids and anal fissures . The abdomen may become distended and diffusely tender and crampy , occasionally with enhanced bowel sounds While many feel that one should have a bowel movement every day, it may be completely normal to defecate once a week as long as this does not cause any other symptoms. This depends on dietary habits, exercise and various other factors. Severe cases ("fecal impaction") may feature symptoms of bowel obstruction ( vomiting , very tender abdomen) and "paradoxical diarrhea", where soft stool from the small intestine bypasses the impacted matter in the colon edit The diagnosis is essentially made by the patient's description of the symptoms. Enquiring about dietary habits may reveal a low intake of dietary fiber or inadequate amounts of fluids. Constipation as a result of immobility or

Extractions: TEXAS PEDIATRIC SURGICAL ASSOCIATES CONSTIPATION What is constipation? Constipation is a very common problem in infants and children and is frequently seen by both pediatricians and family doctors. Most of the time, reassurance, dietary changes, and laxatives are effective treatment for both the patient and family. Constipation can occur at any age and the evaluation and treatment may be different depending on the child's age. The newborn infant should have his/her first stool within the first 24 hours after birth. Failure to pass stool by 48 hours of life may signify a more serious condition such as Hirschsprung's disease, meconium ileus due to cystic fibrosis, or hypothyroidism and further evaluation of the infant is needed. Constipation is usually diagnosed when an infant or child has hard stools or has difficulty stooling. This condition can be quite distressing for the family but is usually easy to treat. Infants are noted to strain excessively and have difficulty passing stools, even though their stools are of normal consistency. The difficulty in passing stool is thought to represent a delay in maturation of intestinal motility and is self-resolving; use of glycerin suppositories may be helpful. The frequency of bowel movements in infants varies considerably, and an infant who has soft, pain-free, but infrequent stools is not constipated and does not need further evaluation. As the child gets older, constipation can be due to a large number of factors including anal fissure, diet lacking in fiber and fluids, overuse of laxatives, family or behavior problems, and (rarely) ectopic anus. Constipation in children can also present, paradoxically, as watery diarrhea and incontinence due to overflow around impacted stool, a condition called encopresis.

Extractions: Fecal soiling occurs when children leak stool, usually involuntarily, into their underwear, after they have been potty trained. Although soiling can be from fecal incontinence secondary to an anatomic problem, such as an anal malformation, meningomyelocele, muscle diseases, or after anal surgery, it is most commonly due to encopresis Although encopresis occurs equally in boys and girls in younger children, by school age, it is much more common in boys. Encopresis is a complication of chronic constipation , and it is fecal soiling with the loss of semi-formed or usually liquid stools, which may be foul smelling, into a child's underwear.

http://www.quickcare.org/gast/constipation.html

Extractions: To understand constipation, you have to understand how the large intestine creates feces (stool). Food flows through the small intestine as a liquid mixture of digestive juices and the food you eat. By the time it reaches the large intestine, all the nutrients have been absorbed. The large intestine has one main function: to absorb water from the waste liquid, and turn it into a waste solid (stool). Common Causes Sometimes too much water is absorbed by the large intestine, leaving a very hard and dry stool that can't be passed without straining. That's constipation. Constipation itself is unpleasant enough, but when compounded by hemorrhoids created from straining, it can be miserable. Listed below are some common causes of constipation. Not drinking enough fluids. Your colon will absorb more water to prevent dehydration, resulting in dry, hard stools. Not having a bowel movement when you have the urge. This keeps stool in the colon longer, where more water is absorbed and stools get harder. Anything slowing movement of food through your colon increases your risk for constipation. Again, the longer it stays in, the harder it gets. Common factors slowing down the colon:

http://www.wrongdiagnosis.com/sym/constipation.htm

Extractions: Introduction: Constipation is a common symptom where a person has difficulty passing feces or unusually dry stool. Note that dry stool is medically considered within the spectrum of "constipation", although many people will use the term constipation only when stool dryness or hardness actually causes difficulty passing stool. Straining at stool is called " tenesmus "; see also bowel infrequency Constipation is common in children and older age, but can affect anyone. Since everyone has difficult bowel patterns, and not everyone passes one stool per day, exactly who qualifies for the diagnosis of "constipated" is not always clear. About 2% of the population suffers from chronic constipation. Various conditions can cause constipation ranging from poor diet aging pregnancy irritable bowel syndrome , and numerous other underlying conditions for constipation . Constipation can also cause diarrhea leading to misdiagnosis. Various medications can cause constipation including overuse of laxatives that can cause a vicious cycle of constipation. Although constipation is not usually caused by a serious disease, professional medical advice is necessary to rule them out.
