Not Sure If You Have Constipation?

Do you have these 5 symptoms? You might be constipated ...

Frequency of Bowel Movements
Discomfort
Bloating
Fatigue
Hemorrhoids

When you have Constipation and try to have a bowel movement, you may notice that it's not an easy proposition. You may have to really strain and push to get the bowel movement to clear your system. All this pushing and straining can do damage to your anus and leaving you looking for some sort of constipation relief that will stop the pain.

In addition to the stress of the bowel movement causing hemorrhoids, all that time you spend sitting on the toilet waiting for a bowel movement is not helping things. The angle at which we sit on a toilet causes there to be a great amount of pressure on the anus area, which can aggravate an already sensitive portion of the body and lead to more hemorrhoids.
