Agree, you don’t hear too often from a friend or relative: they say, there’s trouble with digestion, I can’t go to the toilet in a big way. Meanwhile, such a nuisance as constipation is familiar to many firsthand. This word refers to the difficulty or complete absence of acts of defecation. As a rule, the disease is accompanied by a decrease in the amount of feces and discomfort during bowel movements.
Symptomatics
Most constipated patients complain of loss of appetite, headaches, constant fatigue, nervousness and muscle analgesia. Some can't even sleep at night. If a person fails to go to the toilet in a big way for several weeks, or even months, this affects the condition of his skin: it acquires a yellowish tint, becomes dull, dry, and unhe althy in appearance. In addition, constipation can lead to the development of hemorrhoids, a disease that causes people much more suffering.
Lifestyle
As a rule, the one who complains: NotI can go to the toilet in a big way”, leads the wrong way of life. Perhaps his diet is dominated by fast food, meat dishes and, in general, fatty and heavy foods. And the job, most likely, is sitting at the computer. Such a person usually prefers to spend rare hours of rest not in nature with friends, but on the couch with a book. In addition, constant stress is the cause of constipation. Therefore, if you want to never again say to the doctor: “I can’t go to the toilet in a big way,” don’t overwork, don’t get into unnecessary conflicts, avoid stressful situations.
Nervous system
If your digestive problems are somehow related to the state of the nervous system, it is recommended to take laxatives along with herbal sedatives - for example, with traditional valerian tincture.
Doctors advice
One has only to tell the specialist: “I can’t go to the toilet in a big way,” and he will bombard you with useful tips. So, for example, the doctor will recommend emptying the bowels every day at the same time; do not spend more than twenty minutes on the toilet - regardless of whether you have achieved results or not; don't push too hard. All this makes some sense. Regular presence in the toilet will sooner or later form a conditioned reflex, and soon the intestines will begin to empty.
Food
Suffering from constipation? Think about your diet. Is it dominated by spices, strong tea, coffee, chocolate, pears? All of these products are best consumed asless often. If this does not help, see a doctor - he will prescribe a mild laxative for you. Glycerin suppositories also help. They are especially shown to those who are painful to go to the toilet. Often they are prescribed to children and pregnant women. Many patients are convinced of the beneficial properties of the enema, but this position is fundamentally wrong. The maximum that you will achieve is the cleansing of the rectum from the "nasty" accumulated there. The procedure as a whole is not bad, but it will not solve your problem. Tired of spending a lot of time on the toilet? Turn to traditional medicine. Decoctions of buckthorn, yarrow and rhubarb are considered effective. It is also advisable to drink more yogurt. Let dried apricots, beets, cabbage and prunes be on your table every day - all these products have a stimulating effect on the intestines.
