colon (slow transit constipation) or difficulty passing bowel movements
after they reach the rectum (outlet dysfunction).
The common symptoms of constipation are:
•Straining
•Hard or lumpy stools
•Feeling that there is a blockage in the rectum that prevents bowel movements from passing
•Having to press around the anal opening
•Less than three bowel movements per week
•Hard or lumpy stools

signs could probably indicate something more serious and you should
consider consulting a doctor.

2. Lumps inside and around your bottom (anus)
(This could be signs of piles of hemorrhoids)
3. Constant abdominal pain (This could be a sign of diverticulitis disease)
4. Nausea, vomiting and fever (This could be a sign of diverticulitis)
5. Rectal Bleeding (This could be a sign of diverticulitis and bowel cancer)
6. Unintentional weight loss (This could indicate malabsorption issues or in rare cases colorectal cancer)
These are just examples and not to be used a a
diagnosis. Constipation could be corrected and prevented if given proper
attention, lifestyle modification and medication. Among them are
increasing dietary fiber in your diet, exercise to promote blood
circulation and changing your toilet position.
