Disease Overview
What is Chronic Constipation?
Chronic Constipation involves infrequent bowel movements or difficult passage of stools that persists for several weeks or longer. It's generally defined as having fewer than three bowel movements a week.
Ignoring constipation can lead to severe structural complications like piles, fissures, and rectal prolapse due to chronic straining. At Procto Surgical Hospital, we look beyond simple laxatives. We utilize advanced diagnostic tools like Anorectal Manometry to identify functional pelvic floor issues and treat them using advanced, non-surgical Biofeedback Therapy.
At Procto Surgical Hospital Ahmedabad, Gujarat, we use advanced, US-FDA approved LHP/Laser technology to treat Chronic Constipation without any cuts, bleeding, or pain.
Warning Signs
Symptoms of Chronic Constipation
Infrequent Stools
Passing fewer than three stools a week, accompanied by bloating, gas, and lower back discomfort.
Severe Straining
Having lumpy, hard, dry stools and needing to strain intensely to initiate or finish a bowel movement.
Incomplete Evacuation
Feeling as though there is a physical blockage in your rectum or that you cannot fully empty your bowels.
Understanding Causes
What Causes Chronic Constipation?
Low Fiber Diet & Dehydration
A lack of dietary fiber and insufficient water intake makes stools dry, hard, and extremely difficult to push.
Pelvic Floor Dyssynergia
The pelvic muscles and anal sphincter contract instead of relaxing during bowel movements, blocking stool exit.
Ignoring the Natural Urge
Repeatedly delaying bowel movements desensitizes the rectal nerves, leading to stool accumulation and drying.
Lack of Physical Activity
A sedentary lifestyle slows down the natural muscular contractions (peristalsis) of the colon.
Laxative Abuse/Dependency
Overusing chemical laxatives makes the bowel 'lazy' and unable to function naturally without stimulation.
Hormonal & Neurogenic Issues
Hypothyroidism, diabetes, or nerve damage from spinal issues can slow down colon motility.
Stages of Progression
Severity Stages of Chronic Constipation
Early intervention prevents severe complications. Learn how this condition progresses.
1
Occasional Constipation
Acute, short-term episodes caused by changes in diet, travel, stress, or minor dehydration. Responds quickly to hydration.
2
Chronic Functional
Difficulty passing stool persisting for over 3 months. Stools are regularly hard, and patient experiences persistent bloating.
3
Pelvic Floor Dyssynergia
A coordination defect where pelvic floor muscles fail to relax during straining. Stools get stuck in the rectum.
4
Obstructed Defecation (ODS)
Severe structural or functional inability to evacuate, often accompanied by rectocele or internal prolapse.
