First, people who are prone to gastrointestinal diseases and have long-term constipation are several times more likely to get various gastrointestinal diseases than others. If useless substances stay in the intestine for too long, it will lead to the formation of a large number of substances such as hydrogen sulfide, fecal odor and indole. This substance can cause intestinal metabolism, producing bacteria and toxins. Intestinal mucosa is invaded by bacteria and toxins for a long time, and diseases such as inflammation and ulcer will appear. In addition, the intestine contains a large number of microorganisms, which can help the human body absorb and digest nutrients in certain foods. Long-term constipation will lead to intestinal flora imbalance, leading to a sharp decline in the number of beneficial bacteria and a gradual increase in some harmful bacteria. Intestinal mucosa can also be infected by these bacteria, and it is easy to get intestinal polyps. In addition, compared with other people, constipation patients have a high probability of colorectal cancer 10%.
Second, the induction of acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases If constipation, it will last for a long time in the process of defecation, and in the process of exertion, abdominal pressure will rise rapidly. When the abdominal pressure rises, it will affect the blood circulation of the body and lead to abnormal vasospasm. This will make blood pressure rise rapidly, which will lead to the rupture of blood vessels. If the cerebral vessels rupture, it will cause cerebral hemorrhage, which will seriously affect the patient's body and life.
Third, the ability to detoxify is reduced. The intestine compresses some food residues into excrement, thus promoting excretion. If you are constipated for a long time, some metabolites and toxins in your body can't be excreted in time, which will accumulate in the intestine and eventually be absorbed by the intestine. Moreover, it will flow to other parts of the body with blood, thus affecting various organs of the body, thereby increasing the chance of illness.
Fourth, people with anal infection and long-term constipation are prone to anal diseases such as anal fissure and hemorrhoids. Abdominal pressure will be higher when defecating, which will lead to proctoptosis. In addition, because the stool is too hard, it will cause anal tearing when passing through the anus, which will lead to anal fissure. As time goes on, the probability of hemorrhoids will increase.
