A. Constipation is usually a very common problem seen in many cases where the most important causative factor is decrease intake of high fibre diet along with lessefsr fluid intake. some food like junk food mostly containing maida and oily food can aggravate such condition. diet modification should be tried first followed by medications like lactulose milk of magnesia and PEG .
