The treatment of constipation is “one not, one first, one after”

1, one does not refer to constipation patients do not want to “a quick”, the indiscriminate use of laxatives. Especially stimulating laxatives, such as rhubarb, senna, fruit guide tablets, aloe vera capsules, such drugs can be taken for a long time to damage the intestinal nerve, leading to the occurrence of “diarrheal colon”, and eventually formed dependent constipation. At that time, even if there is a sufficient amount of feces in the intestine, will not produce bowel movements. 2, a first finger to cure constipation first consider non-surgical conservative treatment. Chinese medicine has a long history and has unique advantages in the treatment of constipation. According to the nature of the disease constipation is summarized as cold, heat, deficiency, real four aspects, and then for different causes to take the corresponding Chinese medicine methods of treatment, so that “targeted, both the symptoms and the root cause of treatment”. Treatment methods are diverse, in addition to oral soup, can also use Chinese medicine enema, acupuncture buried line, acupuncture point compress and anal expansion massage, in addition, can also cooperate with colon hydrotherapy, microwave physiotherapy and other treatments. 3, after one refers to rely on surgery to treat constipation is the last choice. Now there are more and more tests related to constipation, such as gastrointestinal passage test, anorectal manometry, fecal imaging, etc.. These tests will yield anatomical causes of constipation such as rectal protrusion, mucosal laxity, and “long bowel”. Some people do not undergo systematic and regular conservative treatment, but blindly choose surgery, which results in “more losses than gains” and further aggravates constipation. Constipation is caused by multiple factors, and people with “severe rectal protrusion” on x-ray may not be constipated. Therefore, constipation surgery should be done with caution.
