Constipation is a common clinical condition caused by a variety of pathological factors, mainly referring to a decrease in the number of bowel movements (<3/week), dry and hard stools and/or difficulty in defecation (straining to defecate, difficulty in passing stools, feeling of incomplete defecation, time consuming defecation and the need for manual assistance in defecation). The goal of treatment for constipation is to relieve symptoms and restore normal bowel dynamics and physiological functions of defecation. The principles of treatment are: adjust lifestyle, establish a reasonable dietary structure, develop correct defecation habits, and adjust the mental and psychological state; for those who have a clear cause, carry out etiological treatment; for those who need long-term laxative maintenance treatment, avoid abusing laxatives; surgical procedures should strictly grasp the indications, and make objective predictions on the efficacy of surgery. 1.Adjustment of lifestyle: ①Diet and water intake: increase the intake of fiber and water, mainly crude staple foods and vegetables and fruits rich in dietary fiber, and drink at least 1.5L of water daily, and should not drink more tea and coffee-containing beverages. ②Establish good defecation habits: colon activity is most active in the morning after waking up and after meals, it is recommended to try to defecate in the morning or within 2h after meals, concentrate on defecation, preferably do not read cell phones or books, defecation time should not be too long, within 15min is appropriate. ③ Appropriate exercise, such as walking, walking or massaging the abdominal muscles with both hands several times a day to enhance the gastrointestinal motility. 2, drug therapy: the choice of laxative drugs should be less toxic, less side effects, drug dependence for the principle, such as volumetric drugs (bulking agents), osmotic laxatives. Osmotic laxatives can form a hypertonic state in the intestine, absorb water, increase the volume of stool, stimulate intestinal peristalsis, can be used in patients with mild to moderate constipation, drugs including polyethylene glycol, non-absorbable sugars (such as lactulose). Avoid long-term use of stimulant laxatives. For fecal impaction, enemas and suppositories may be used temporarily to release the impaction and then switched to bulking agents or osmotic laxatives after release. Specific medication, please combine with clinical, to the doctor's face to face guidance shall prevail. 3, other treatment methods: Chinese medicine, acupuncture, massage and other therapeutic means can also effectively relieve the symptoms of chronic constipation, but the evaluation of its efficacy needs more evidence-based medical evidence. 4.Surgical treatment: Patients with chronic constipation who really need to receive surgical treatment are still a minority. When the symptoms seriously affect work and life, and after a period of strict non-surgical treatment is ineffective, surgical treatment can be considered, but we must strictly grasp the indications for surgery. However, the indications for surgery must be strictly controlled. For details, please refer to the clinical situation and be guided by the doctor's interview. Constipation seriously affects the quality of survival, treatment of constipation, prevention is very important, need to develop good habits.
