Constipation is when the bowel movements become less frequent and difficult to pass. This mostly happens due to changes in routine, lifestyle, diet, or inadequate intake of fiber.
This is caused when the colon sucks a lot of water from the stool making it more dry and hard, which then makes it harder to push it out of the body. Constipation, if untreated can cause severe issues later. It is necessary to consult a doctor if you face this issue frequently.
