When it started first started there was intense burning now it has changed to pain almost like spasms. Please help
The causes of constipation can be: 1. Functional cause- due to decreased gastric motility 2. Irritable bowel syndrome- constipation predominant type. 3. Less consumption of fiber rich foods 4. Less fluid intake 5. Prolonged use of certain medications. 6. Hormonal & Metabolic causes, etc.
So, kindly consult a Gastroenterologist & get a proper physical examination done. Investigations like Ultrasound scan of abdomen, Colonoscopy & contrast studies will be helpful to rule out any pathology in the Gastrointestinal tract.
Till then, symptomatic relief can be obtained by intake of Laxatives & stool softeners, but their regular use is not advised. However, as long as the underlying cause is not treated, symptoms will keep recurring.
