A. Constipation is usually a very common problem seen in many where the most important causative factor is decrease intake of fiber rich diet along with lesser fluid intake. some food like junk food mostly containing maida and oily food can aggravate such condition. Here the diet modification should be tried first so encourage fibre diet give fruits and vegetable . Avoid excess of cows or buffalo milk and maida containing food . Medications like labctulose , milk of magnesia and Peg (y muout ) powderare used . In emergency situation soabp water with finger stimulation in rectal area and glycerine suppository can be tried .
