What Are the Hazards of Prolonged Bowel Movements to the Body?
Prolonged defecation time is not beneficial to physical health, especially for middle-aged and elderly people. For patients with underlying diseases, long-term defecation is easy to cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The cause of prolonged defecation time is generally related to constipation and poor diet habits. Of course, it may also be related to diseases. If the defecation time is often prolonged, it is necessary to understand the specific reasons. Let's take a look at the hazards of prolonged defecation time.
Firstly, the defecation is related to a person's detoxification ability. If the time is too long, toxins may accumulate in the body, causing bad breath and skin abscesses. Secondly, prolonged defecation time can easily cause poor blood circulation around the anus, leading to anorectal diseases such as hemorrhoids and constipation.
The main reason for prolonged defecation time is that defecation is difficult, which may be caused by mild dry stool or poor gastrointestinal motility. At the same time, it may also be caused by the fact that the stool has not been excreted for a long time. If the stool is not excreted in time, it will accumulate in the intestine, making it relatively difficult to excrete. In daily life, it is important to cultivate the habit of regular defecation, eat more fruits and vegetables, and properly use drugs that increase intestinal motility to promote stool excretion.
The feeling of incomplete defecation caused by prolonged defecation time is considered as a pathological phenomenon and syndrome caused by a series of physiological dysfunction of the spleen due to spleen qi deficiency. It is recommended to take Shenling Baishu Powder and Bupi Yichang Pill under the guidance of doctors. In addition, attention should also be paid to diet, with less fried, pickled, raw and cold, and stimulating foods.
