Constipation is a common digestive issue characterized by infrequent, difficult, or painful bowel movements. It can be caused by various factors such as a low-fiber diet, dehydration, lack of physical activity, stress, or certain medications. Symptoms include straining, abdominal discomfort, bloating, and a feeling of incomplete evacuation. Chronic constipation may lead to more serious complications like hemorrhoids.
