A member asked:

My husband is constipaded. what should he do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Constipation: Depends on why he is constipated and whether this is new or has he always been constipated. Because there are so many conditions that can cause constipation, it is a good idea to have your husband get a physical exam from your doctor and discuss this and any other problems at that time.
