A member asked:

My friend has got constipation and stomach cramps what could this be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to say: Constipation can cause cramps. Low fiber, lack of proper diet, dehydration are common causes. Sometimes intestinal issues can also cause constipation. Perhaps your friend can see a doctor to provide a history and get examined. Good luck
