Patient's question:
Doctor, I want to ask what's wrong with me. For severe constipation, what medicine should I take?Doctor's answer:
Constipation mainly refers to difficulty in defecation, which is primarily caused by gastrointestinal motility problems induced by various factors. Therefore, treatment mainly focuses on adjusting gastrointestinal motility based on the underlying cause. Mild cases can be managed through dietary changes and increased physical activity. Severe cases may require oral medications such as Domperidone tablets, Siquan Decoction, Mahan Runtang pills, Phenolphthalein tablets, or even senna leaf tea, castor oil, or external use of glycerin suppositories to alleviate symptoms.
