Patients with constipation should not be busy with medication, relying on the basic physiological reflexes of the human body to "defecate voluntarily" and solve the problem of "exit".
Patients with constipation, excessive force when defecating, may cause a sudden rise in blood pressure, a sudden and sharp increase in the burden on the heart, easy to induce myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction and other life-threatening acute and critical diseases, especially the elderly. Therefore, according to the physiological basis of the bowel reflex, the "autonomous defecation method" is summarized, and the specific methods are as follows:
Every day after getting up for 5 minutes, immediately go to the toilet, and start the autonomous defecation method two-step method: (1) breathe slowly three times, the mind is concentrated on the anus, then, deeply do 3 times of slow movement of the levator ani muscles, and then breathe slowly three times; then, quickly do 3 times of lifting fast movement; (2) gently roar, hold your breath for a few seconds, lean forward, hold your legs with both hands, tighten your abdomen, slightly shake your thighs, at this time, many large stools will be discharged smoothly at once, and immediately end the stool.
Physiological basis: (1) feces stored in the sigmoid colon; (2) 5 minutes after getting up, there is a standing effect, stimulating the cerebral cortex, causing total colon peristalsis, so that the feces in the sigmoid colon enter the rectum and produce a defecation reflex; (3) after a smooth defecation at one time, the stool must be ended immediately, and the benign conditioned reflex of "autonomous defecation method" can be established.
Precautions: (1) regular, concentrated attention; (2) maintain the amount of diet and fiber; (3) hold your breath for a few seconds, if you can not excrete the stool, according to your own physical condition, slowly implement the "voluntary defecation method" or stop the implementation of the "voluntary defecation method", if there is abnormality, please seek medical treatment in time.
