Whether surgical treatment is needed to treat constipation is related to the cause of the disease. If it is caused by indigestion, etc., no surgery is needed; if it is caused by intestinal adhesions, tumors, etc., surgery may be needed. There are various possible causes of constipation, such as frequent consumption of greasy food, insufficient intake of fresh vegetables and fruits, low water intake, etc. It may also be related to personal lifestyle habits such as staying up late, insomnia or mental stress, anxiety, etc., which may also lead to gastrointestinal dysfunction or indigestion, resulting in constipation. This condition usually does not need to be treated by surgery. If the cause of constipation is intestinal space-occupying lesions such as tumors, huge polyps, intestinal adhesions, etc., then surgical treatment is needed according to the patient’s condition. For example, rectal cancer may be treated by combining surgical resection and radiotherapy; if the conservative treatment of intestinal adhesion fails, surgery is also needed to release the adhesion. If constipation occurs, it is recommended to go to regular hospitals in time to find out the cause and choose appropriate treatment according to the judgment of professional doctors.
