What does obstructive constipation mean?

Obstructive constipation is constipation caused by intestinal obstruction, which may be caused by intestinal polyps, hemorrhoids, rectal prolapse and other diseases.

1. Intestinal polyps

Intestinal polyps are a benign intestinal disease, usually formed in the colon or rectum. As intestinal polyps increase, intestinal obstruction will form, so that stool cannot pass, resulting in obstructive constipation.

2.

Hemorrhoids are formed by vasodilation at the lower end of the rectum or anal canal area. Patients with local hemorrhoids will affect defecation and cause obstructive constipation.

3. Rectal

prolapse refers to rectal displacement to the anus, which will hinder the normal passage of substances in the intestinal tract, resulting in obstructive constipation.
