Constipation

Constipation refers to infrequent or hard stools, or difficulty passing stools.

When the stool is hard, infrequent, and requires significant effort to pass, you have constipation. The passage of large, wide stools may tear the mucosal membrane of the anus, especially in children. This can cause bleeding and the possibility of an anal fissure .

Constipation is most often caused by a low-fiber diet, lack of physical activity, not drinking enough water, or delay in going to the bathroom when you have the urge to defecate. Stress and travel can also contribute to constipation or other changes in bowel habits.

Constipation in children often occurs if they hold back bowel movements when they aren’t ready for toilet training or are afraid of it.

Complications:

• Abdominal pain
• Rectal pain
• Blood in your stool
• Unexplained weight loss
