Persistent constipation is associated with poor living habits, disorders of intestinal flora, and slowed colon transit. It can be relieved by adjusting living habits and taking medication.
1. Bad living habits: too little daily drinking water, low intake of fresh vegetables and fruits, resulting in insufficient water intake and slow intestinal peristalsis. This cause usually requires active adjustment of lifestyle habits, and constipation can be relieved after a period of time.
2. Intestinal flora disorders: For intestinal flora disorders caused by stubborn constipation, probiotics can be taken, such as bifidobacteria, lactobacilli, etc. to promote intestinal peristalsis and regulate the balance of intestinal flora.
3. Slowed transmission in the colon: Slowed transmission in the colon can cause the digestion and metabolism of food to increase in time, thus absorbing a large amount of water to supply and cause persistent constipation. Oral gastrointestinal dynamics drugs such as Mosapride should be taken as prescribed by the doctor, and at the same time, daily attention should be paid to replenish water to improve the stubborn constipation.
In addition, laxatives, such as lactulose, can be taken to improve the symptoms of severe intractable constipation.
If you are diagnosed with persistent constipation, it is recommended that you undergo standardized treatment as soon as possible in order to minimize the adverse effects of the disease. All of the above medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor, avoid self-medication.
