HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern the physiotherapy that you are having and the constipation are nothing to take with each other this could be merely coincidence, for the constipation no need to worry drink lot of water have fibber containing diet, go for defecation even if you do not have any feeling for that, hope this information helps you have nice day.
