Understanding Constipation: Causes and what is constipation?
Constipation, one of the most prevalent gastrointestinal complaints in the United States, often goes overlooked. In this informative video, I dive deep into the pathophysiology, and underlying causes for constipation. With at least 2.5 million doctor visits annually due to this condition, it's essential to gain a comprehensive understanding. From primary constipation subtypes like slow transit constipation and pelvic floor dysfunction to secondary causes related to medical, medications, and lifestyle factors, I cover it all. Join me and empower yourself with knowledge to overcome constipation and improve your digestive health.
