Do you know the consequences of frequent constipation?

As the saying goes, nine out of ten people suffer from hemorrhoids. Nowadays, more and more people suffer from hemorrhoids. Many patients can't find any cause at all, so they can't treat it. In fact, some medical experts have found that hemorrhoids are related to constipation in daily life. The following editor will analyze the adverse consequences of frequent constipation.

1. Hemorrhoids occur:

When constipated, people exert force during defecation, which increases rectal cervical pressure and blocks venous reflux, causing the normal anal pads to become congested and hypertrophic and repeatedly shift distally. The fibrous septa therein gradually relax until they rupture, accompanied by venous congestion, dilation, and fusion, and even the inclusion of small arterial and venous fistulas, eventually forming hemorrhoids.

2. Aggravate cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases:

For elderly patients with constipation and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, excessive force during defecation will increase blood pressure and oxygen consumption of the body, which can easily induce cerebral hemorrhage, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, and even endanger life.

3. Formation of abdominal hernia:

When constipation occurs, due to excessive force during defecation, the intra-abdominal pressure suddenly increases, and the abdominal organs such as the small intestine protrude to the body surface through the weak parts of the abdominal wall, which may form an abdominal hernia.

4. Damage Beauty:

Long-term constipation causes harmful substances to be reabsorbed into the blood, leading to rough and dull skin, acne, pigmentation, facial spots, etc.

Constipation has these dangers:

The main symptoms of constipation are dry, hard stools and difficulty in defecation, which may be accompanied by abdominal distension, abdominal pain, blood in the stool, anal prolapse, anal fissures or hemorrhoids. Because the stool is dry and hard or sheep feces-like, the patient may have discomfort such as spasmodic pain and a feeling of falling in the lower abdomen. Sometimes the spasmodic sigmoid colon can be felt in the left lower abdomen.

Constipation is the cause of anorectal diseases. The accumulated stool in the intestines compresses the intestinal wall, injuring the intestinal mucosa and slowing down the intestinal motility. In addition, the toxins produced by the accumulated stool are absorbed by the intestines and reach various parts of the human body through the blood circulation, causing dark complexion, rough skin, brown spots, acne, obesity, etc. In particular, the intestinal motility of middle-aged and elderly people decreases due to physiological decline.
