Does Metoprolol Tartrate Cause Constipation For Close To A Month When Diagnosed With Hemorrhoids?
Hi, I started taking metropolol tartrate and I m having severe constipation for close to a month. It is quite bad. Is that a side effect? Once I finally get to go to the bathroom... the stools are hard at first and they hurt my anal area. I have a hemorrohoid and it is making this whole situation particularly painful... Any suggestions?
As per your complain you have problem of constipation that may be because of lack of high fiber foods and water intake in diet or medicine side effect or lack of gastric motility or other reasons.
Bowel movement become painful because of hemorroid problem. Bulk forming agent like psyllium is helpful in constipation problem. Avoid excessive straining at toilet time. Avoid gaseous foods and spicy foods. Drink more water. Warm water sitz bath also helpful in hemorroids problem. Take a high fiber foods. Fresh fruits and vegetables helpful in digestion. Consult a gastroenterologist for further treatment.
I hope this will help you. Get well soon.. Thank you.
