Constipation

Constipation is a common digestive problem in which bowel movements become infrequent, difficult, or painful. It often involves hard or dry stools, abdominal discomfort, bloating, and a feeling of incomplete evacuation.

Constipation can be caused by low fiber intake, inadequate water consumption, lack of physical activity, irregular eating habits, stress, certain medications, and digestive disorders. Most cases can be managed through a high-fiber diet, adequate hydration, regular exercise, and healthy bowel habits. In persistent cases, medical consultation is recommended to identify the underlying cause.
