The feeling of difficulty in emptying the bowel, the impossibility of relief, despite persistent straining, the need to apply additional, stimulating the release of the rectum from the feces, actions (pressure on the perineum, the side walls of the anus, the vagina).

Chronic constipation is diagnosed in cases where the frequency of stool becomes less than 3 times a week, defecation is significantly difficult and requires pronounced efforts, the consistency of the stool is dense, tubercular, there is a feeling of incomplete liberation of the rectum from feces.
