A member asked:
Can i strain to have a bowel movement if i have chf?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, but...: straining to have a bowel movement shouldn't be a problem with CHF, but frequently, if you increase the amount of fiber in your diet, your stools will come out easily enough that you shouldn't have to strain. I would give that a try if I were you. Good luck.
