What does constpaided mean?

constipation is a condition in which the person is having difficulty emptying his/her bowels. (Going #2) Constipation is caused by 1 of 2 conditions: 1. Materials that you eat (food) is moved through the small and large intestines by a special action called peristalses. Imagine the intestines contracting in a wave like motion, pushing food through the intestines. It would be as though your garden hose had something around it and was pushed toward the opening, forcing all of the water out of the hose. If something interferes with peristalses, you could become constipated. 2. If the digested food does not have enough liquid, it can become hard and difficult to pass. That too is a form of constipation. Some medications and inactivity can contribute to diminished peristalses, so read labels before taking a medication that may cause constipation. Foods that are low in fiber may result in feces that becomes hard and difficult to pass.
