Patient's question:
I have habitual constipation. It reappeared since I was in high school, and over the years, I've suffered a lot. Someone told me that I can eat a lot of sesame oil. How can sesame oil be eaten to relieve constipation?Doctor's answer:
When eating a lot of sesame oil on a regular basis, it can indeed effectively relieve constipation. However, for those with severe constipation, it is absolutely essential not to consume it for a long period of time. Otherwise, it may not only lead to the recurrence of other health issues, such as difficulty defecating for two or more consecutive days, broken skin during defecation, anal pain, anal (foreign body in the anus), anal itching, anal moisture, or anal redness and swelling, but it is crucial to seek professional treatment at a specialized colorectal hospital for a thorough examination and treatment in such cases.
