Constipation is one of the burgeoning problems of a city life. Most people suffer from it due to a stressed out or an overly packed schedule. Some symptoms that confirm you have a constipation problem include bowel movement not even once in the entire day, abdomen pain, formation of wind, constant headaches. Sometimes extreme symptoms occur like having a vertigo, drowsiness, fever, hypertension, pain in the legs and an overall uncomfortable feel.
Causes of Constipation:
There are many reasons that culminate to constipation. They include not eating on time and not eating the right food. Junk food always has a great hand in it. So stop eating it with immediate effect. No roadside yummies too. You have to eat fully cooked food made in hygienic conditions. If you are a heavy non-veg eater, give it up for some time because the germs in the food also
lead to constipation. Raw foods like salads and charcoal grilled corn also add to the pain. Now take a look at your lifestyle too.
