Constipation Treatment in Dubai
Constipation is one of the most common digestive complaints affecting people of all ages. It can cause discomfort, abdominal bloating, and difficulty passing stool, which may significantly impact daily life. At the Dr. Rami Hamed Center (DRHC) Dubai, our gastroenterology specialists provide comprehensive diagnosis and advanced treatment for constipation to restore healthy bowel function and improve digestive health.
Constipation may occur occasionally due to lifestyle factors, but persistent constipation can be associated with underlying gastrointestinal conditions that require proper medical evaluation and treatment.
What is Constipation?
Constipation is typically defined as having fewer than three bowel movements per week or experiencing difficulty passing stool. Patients may experience hard, dry stools, straining during bowel movements, and a feeling of incomplete bowel evacuation.
In some cases, constipation may be associated with digestive disorders such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), food intolerance, or gut microbiome imbalance.
