Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know if it's because of a stomach issue or high pressure, I've been experiencing some constipation symptoms. I took some medicine, but it hasn't stabilized. I went to the hospital and the doctor said this constipation is caused by qi stagnation. I want to know what are the symptoms of qi stagnation constipation?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to seek professional medical advice from a reputable hospital for a thorough examination and treatment. Constipation is often related to diet and lifestyle. It is advisable to make dietary adjustments, drink more water, and consume more fresh fruits and vegetables, such as dragon fruit and bananas. Drinking a cup of honey water on an empty stomach in the morning can promote intestinal movement. Massaging the abdomen in a clockwise direction can also help with bowel movement. The diet should be kept light, with more fruits and vegetables and less greasy food. Avoid spicy and heavily seasoned foods.
