Patient's Query
I am 73 years of age, my meals does not digest and bowels doesn't move, constipation I rarely go the toilet, at times my stools pass like pebbles, two weeks ago my stools passed with blood
Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar
It's important to address your concerns regarding digestion and bowel movements. Your description suggests possible constipation, which can occur due to dietary factors, dehydration, or reduced physical activity. The presence of blood in your stools should be taken seriously, as it may indicate a condition that requires medical attention. To improve your situation, consider increasing your fluid intake, incorporating more fiber-rich foods like fruits and vegetables, and engaging in gentle physical activity if possible. However, given your symptoms, especially the blood, I recommend consulting a gastroenterologist to ensure proper evaluation and personalized treatment.
