Constipation, Imaginary
SYMPTOMS. Signs include excessive concern about bowel movement or failure to
have a daily bowel movement; often a heavy reliance on enemas or laxitives.
CAUSES. The lack of a daily bowel movement should not be any concern. It can
be normal for some persons to have movements only once in every 2 or 3 days.
Good health does not require daily bowel movements.
TREATMENT. Consult your doctor.
