Feeling backed up, bloated, or just not yourself? It could be constipation, and it’s more common than you think.
Signs of constipation include:
- Fewer than 3 bowel movements a week
- Hard, dry, or difficult-to-pass stools
- Bloating or stomach discomfort
- Feeling like you can’t fully go
If these signs and symptoms lasts more than a few days, causes severe pain, or comes with blood—it’s time to get checked.
The good news is constipation can be prevented with a few simple habits:
- Drink plenty of water
- Eat more fiber-rich foods
- Stay physically active
- Don’t ignore the urge to go
