Learn More About Constipation

Constipation is often accepted as normal. Difficulty evacuating the bowels can result in frustration and seclusion. Infrequent bowel movements can disturb one’s lifestyle.

Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Chronic constipation may be treatable!

Constipation is often a symptom of a specific disease or anatomical. These diseases can often be treated. Identifying the cause of constipation is often very simple. Treatments for these causes can be non-invasive. In some cases a specific cause may not be found but common, treatable diseases can be ruled out.
