What to do if your bowels are slow to digest and you don’t have bowel movements

Slow digestion without defecation may be due to physiological reasons such as food accumulation, which can be relieved on its own; it may also be due to pathological factors such as indigestion and gastric insufficiency, which can be treated by choosing general treatment and medication according to different causes.
1. Accumulation of food: Due to transient overeating and drinking, the digestion and absorption function of the intestines and stomach is lowered, and it is impossible to defecate, which can be relieved by exercising, such as walking, jogging, and so on. Oral domperidone can also be taken to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, lactobacillusin to promote gastrointestinal absorption function.
2. Indigestion: It is mainly due to the lack of gastrointestinal digestive enzymes such as pepsin and trypsin, which leads to the weakening of the function of digestion and absorption of dietary substances, and easily causes constipation. It is usually treated by oral administration of azinamid, pancreatic enzyme enteric capsule and so on.
3. Insufficient gastric power: due to insufficient gastrointestinal power, decreased peristaltic function of the intestines and stomach leading to defecation difficulties, constipation, generally can be relieved by clockwise massage of the abdomen; if you can’t relieve yourself, you can take Itopride, Cisapride and other drugs to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis.
If the symptoms of slow digestion without defecation are not relieved by self-regulation, you should go to a regular hospital in time and be treated by a professional doctor’s diagnosis. Do not blindly use drugs, so as not to delay the condition, miss the best treatment time.
