Nowadays, constipation is a common disease that afflicts patients from old to young, both men and women. Severe constipation, or constipation with organic lesions, needs to be treated by drugs or surgery, while mild or functional constipation can be treated by a number of methods, which are briefly described below. The first is the dietary factor, which has the greatest relationship with defecation. Correct bad eating habits, eat more coarse fiber food, mainly fruits and vegetables, with the highest content of cabbage, radish, spinach, garlic. Crude fiber can increase the weight and volume of stool, enhance the physiological stimulation of the digestive tract, promote intestinal peristalsis and shorten the passage time of intestinal contents. Drink more water to soften the stool and can play a lubricating role. Drinking 500ml of water in the morning on an empty stomach will cause gastric dilation and produce a gastrocolonic reflex, which induces a defecation reflex to promote defecation. Behavioral therapy is designated for defecation exercises to develop good defecation habits, enhance the strength and coordination of the defecation muscles, and promote the passage of colon contents and the smooth discharge of stool. The main purpose is to reestablish the defecation mechanism by simulating the process of defecation. The method is to use the toilet regularly every day, massage the abdomen with both hands to increase the abdominal pressure, with defecation movements, repeatedly, but do not squat for a long time. This method is effective for both outlet obstruction type constipation and slow transmission type constipation. Some patients because of constipation, every time to the toilet will be emotional tension, and easy to lead to difficult to relieve stool, so forming a vicious circle, so psychotherapy in the treatment process of constipation is also particularly important. Visceral nerves are plant nerves, so the internal and external environment and emotional and psychological changes will affect the movement of the intestines through the plant nerves. Patients should learn to adjust their state, eliminate tension, so that constipation does not affect their mood or even quality of life.
