Patient's question:
I am a diabetic. Recently, after eating, I have been feeling bloated and experiencing body pain. I haven't had a bowel movement for several days, and the gas I pass is foul. Additionally, I don't feel hungry.Doctor's answer:
Abdominal pain, no bowel movement, but there is (gas discharge), the possibility of intestinal obstruction is relatively small, but high intestinal obstruction is still possible. Diabetes, if blood sugar is not well-controlled for a long time, can lead to nerve damage. Of course, the autonomic nervous system of the gastrointestinal tract may be less affected, but it should be questioned, leading to intestinal paralysis and weakened peristalsis, causing constipation! Now, let's explain the situation of not defecating, as you have diabetes, bananas and honey are not suitable for bowel regulation, so it is recommended that you consider using a suppository enema.
