What to do if you have colitis and constipation

Constipation has been bothering many people. We all know that although constipation is not a serious disease, it will have many adverse effects on health if it is not effectively relieved. Especially constipation caused by colitis may cause more serious damage. Therefore, I hope that everyone can deal with and solve this problem more scientifically. Let's learn how to solve constipation caused by colitis.

If you encounter constipation problems, you must pay attention to your diet and health. Only by paying attention to these issues can you alleviate the occurrence of constipation to a certain extent, thereby better ensuring your own health and staying away from the various troubles caused by constipation.

1. Develop the habit of regular bowel movements. You should determine a bowel movement time that suits you (preferably in the morning). No matter whether you have the urge to defecate or not, or whether you can defecate or not, you should go to the toilet on time. As long as you persist for a long time, you will form a conditioned reflex of regular bowel movements.

2. Adjust your diet. The elderly should eat more foods rich in fiber, such as whole flour, brown rice, corn, celery, leek, spinach and fruits, to increase dietary fiber, stimulate and promote intestinal peristalsis. Sesame and walnut kernels have a bowel-moisturizing effect, and the elderly can eat more of them.

3. Drink more water. It is best for the elderly to drink a glass of warm water or honey water on an empty stomach every morning to increase intestinal motility and promote defecation. The elderly should also drink more water on a regular basis and not wait until they are thirsty to drink water.

After learning about some solutions to colon constipation, I hope that everyone can pay more attention to this problem when encountering it in life, and pay attention to their daily diet and living habits, because many times bad living habits and hobbies can easily lead to constipation problems.
