A doctor has provided 1 answer

Constipation: Need to defecate to empty the large bowel. Need to empyty large bowel to empty small bowel. Need to empty small bowel to empty stomach. If you don't empty stomach the acid just sits and aggravates the lining of the stomach in the area of the xyphoid process.
