When to Consult

  • Less than three bowel movements per week

  • Long-term laxative dependence without doctor supervision
  • New constipation in seniors, diabetics, or pregnant women

Understanding Constipation in the Indian Context

Chronic constipation affects nearly 22% of urban Indians. Low fibre, desk jobs, dehydration, and irregular meals make Hyderabad residents especially prone. Overusing over-the-counter laxatives can worsen the cycle.

Ajuda Hospitals treats constipation by addressing root causes—diet, motility, medications, and pelvic floor dynamics—so relief is durable, not temporary.

When to Consult Our Constipation Specialists

⚠️ Seek urgent care if you notice:

  • ✓ Vomiting with abdominal swelling or severe pain
  • ✓ Blood in stool or black, tarry stools
  • ✓ New constipation with sudden weight loss
  • ✓ Inability to pass gas or stool for days with fever

For chronic, non-emergency constipation, schedule a clinic visit to map diet, motility, and medication strategies that fit your lifestyle.

Our Diagnostic Approach

Lifestyle Audit

Understand eating patterns, hydration, stress, and medications that influence bowel habits.

Labs & Imaging

Check thyroid, calcium, glucose, and perform ultrasound or colon imaging when needed.

Motility Testing

Anorectal manometry and balloon expulsion reveal pelvic floor coordination.

Team Review

Gastro, dietitians, and physiotherapists collaborate on a phased plan.

Treatment Pathways

Plans start with fibre and hydration resets, layered with safe medications, pelvic floor therapy, and motility management. IBS integration, neuromodulators, or procedural options ensure even complex cases receive relief.

What to Expect: Your Care Journey

Week 0 evaluation → Week 2 symptom tracking → Week 6 regularity achieved → Week 12 laxative taper complete → Month 6 maintenance habits locked in.

Technology & Innovation

Our motility lab syncs reports with the EMR, while digital stool diaries and hydration reminders keep you engaged between visits.

Preventing Complications

Proper management stops piles, fissures, diverticulosis, and stool impaction. We also prevent reliance on unsafe laxative combinations.
