Chronic Constipation: What You Should Know About Your Digestive Health šæ
Constipation is something most people experience occasionally, but when it happens often, it can affect how your body feels and functions.
Our digestive system works hard every day ā it breaks down food, absorbs nutrients, and removes waste.
But when bowel movements become irregular or difficult, it can cause discomfort, bloating, and fatigue.
If constipation lasts for a long time, it may slow digestion and cause the colon to stretch, making it harder for the body to pass stool naturally.
Over time, this can lead to issues like abdominal pressure, hemorrhoids, or small tears that cause pain during bowel movements.
Simple lifestyle changes can make a big difference:
ā Eat more fiber-rich foods (fruits, vegetables, and whole grains)
š§ Drink enough water throughout the day
šāāļø Stay active and exercise regularly
š Try to maintain a regular bathroom routine
Taking care of your digestive system supports your overall health and energy levels ā and itās easier than you might think!
