kindly read detailed answer below
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
I've read your question and understood your concern.
It's difficult to figure out the cause of constipation.
Constipation definition varies from person-to-person. Stools may be too hard or too small, difficult to pass, or infrequent (less than three times per week). Some people with constipation may feel a sense that the bowels are not evacuated completely.
advice:
- stop any medication being used for constipation for a week
- take two tea spoon (or one big spoon) isphagula husk with 200 to 300 mL water thrice daily ,
- increase warm water( at least 8 glass/day) intake
- do not drink water during and immediately after meals
- eat small but frequent meals (rich in fiber)
- eat plentiful "fresh oranges" and "pear "
- avoid COLD milk and and AVOID junk food(NO burger , pizza-even if its veg.) altogether
- mix few drops of "lemon juice" in warm water. Drink on empty stomach, early in the morning, to aid in bowel movement
- avoid beverages / alcohol/ soft drinks
- do some exercise (push-ups / squats etc) early in the morning
- avoid carbonated drinks
- take 2-3 spoon edible "virgin olive oil" in the morning ( before breakfast)
If no resolution after 10 days, then better to visit gastroenterologist and discuss for undergoing Colonoscopic examination.
Besides constipation, if your weight is increasing and/or you feel fatigue, then have a "Thyroid profile test".
Hope to answer your concern. Let me know if there's any further queries.
Wish you good and sound health.
