What to do if you have difficulty defecating? You can find the cause from your lifestyle habits!

There are many factors that affect people's happiness, such as income, family harmony, partner relationship, and whether bowel movements are normal. In today's fast-paced life, many people's living habits are somewhat unhealthy, so the number of constipated people is increasing day by day. After a busy day of work and study, when you rest, you have to think about a question: Will my constipation get better today?

So what exactly causes constipation? Let's find out:

1. Drinking water: Many friends have the habit of not liking to drink water. It may be due to the influence of busy life, or it may be that they simply don’t remember about it. Not drinking water often can easily make our large intestine dry, causing dry stools that are not easy to excrete, and constipation will follow.

2. Bowel habits: When defecating, people always like to play with their mobile phones to distract their attention or kill time. This prolongs our bowel movement time and makes the stool stay in the large intestine for a long time without receiving the "reflection signal" for a long time. Maintaining this habit for a long time will make constipation more likely to occur.

3. Holding back bowel movements: Some friends may be busy at work or study, and they want to finish the work at hand before going to the toilet. They hold back the urge to defecate. Over time, the urge to defecate will gradually subside, resulting in functional constipation.

4. Lack of motivation to defecate: If nutrition is insufficient for a long time or one sits for a long time, it may affect the muscle tension during defecation and cause constipation.

5. Improper diet: In daily life, there are always some people who eat too fine food and ignore eating coarse grains, which makes it difficult to ensure normal bowel movements.

The above are the causes of constipation caused by lifestyle habits, so we must actively improve bad living habits, such as developing the habit of drinking water at regular times and in fixed quantities, changing bad bowel habits, and not holding back bowel movements often. At the same time, we must also pay attention to a balanced diet.
