Just any constipation pain is nothing to fret about. However a severe case of constipation could cause pressure on the abdominal area. So if the pain is very intense and almost piercing at times almost to the point of nausea, then there are other unpleasant symptoms you need to look for in order to check if this kind of constipation pain is a symptom of a much larger problem.
One of the very first things you want to check when facing chronic constipation pain is the person's temperature. If the body temperature is above 100, then some kind of infection is raging in a person's body. And guess what? The solid waste in the bodies has no place to go, and the toxins and harmful bacteria present because of constipation would eventually wind up in the blood stream and can cause infections. Apparently, these are the factors that tend to cause a person to have a temperature. In addition to an elevated temperature, there are also other things to think about why constipation pain is happening. Is your abdominal area almost sore and sensitive to touch? Have you had diarrhea recently that has blood on the stool? Any time you vomit blood or have a blackened stool, you may want to get to the emergency room because you are well aware that the constipation pain might be small factors in a much bigger issue.
In addition to having constipation pain, a person with an elevated temperature and evidence of blood in the stool is very sick. Typically, blood in the stool may be caused by polyps that have been torn to the point of bleeding and while polyps are not malignant, they could develop into tumors so a physician needs to be consulted immediately. Other factors or conditions that may explain that you have constipation pain are: ulcer, damaged appendix, appendicitis, infectious diarrhea, or even a simple blockage.
Chronic constipation pain should always be taken very seriously. Even constipation pain during pregnancy is considered normal however it still warrants concern especially in cases of chronic and severe constipation pain. In most cases, the constipation pain occur because of blockage, thus you must consult a doctor to make sure that everything is alright. To alleviate or prevent blockage, try flushing the entire colonic system with a natural colon cleanser product. This will thoroughly clean your colon and gastrointestinal tract and help prevent future blockages.
