Chronic constipation. Treatment at MCSC
Newspatient n., 22 years old, applied to the MCSC named after a.s. loginov with complaints of constant constipation. She said that she had been repeatedly examined and treated in a polyclinic at her place of residence. Unfortunately, the proposed methods of treatment (medicines, massage courses and physiotherapy) did not give a positive result. The girl still had difficulty defecating.
In the laboratory of functional diagnostics of intestinal diseases, specialists studied in detail the history of the disease and the results of the examinations. To diagnose the cause of constipation, the patient was prescribed a special procedure - anorectal manometry, which allows to assess the muscle tone of the rectum and anus.
The laboratory doctors diagnosed signs of dyssinergic defecation – a condition in which the normal relaxation of the pelvic floor muscles is disturbed. The patient's diet was adjusted and the optimal drug therapy was selected, and 10 sessions of BOS therapy were conducted. The prescribed treatment had a positive effect. The girl normalized the frequency and shape of the stool. today it continues to be observed in the MCSC.
Chronic constipation is a common disease of the gastrointestinal tract. One of the reasons for the development of the disease is dyssinergic defecation (DD), which is characterized by a violation of the coordinated work of the pelvic floor muscles during defecation.
If DD is suspected, anorectal manometry is used for initial diagnosis. With the help of the study, it is possible to exclude not only DD, but also to evaluate the functions of the anal sphincter and the threshold of visceral sensitivity of the rectum.
To eliminate the problem, use the biofeedback method. This is hardware therapy, during which the patient receives information about the state of physiological processes and learns to regulate them.
The patient's history demonstrates the possibilities of establishing the cause and selection of therapy for chronic constipation. specialists of the laboratory of functional diagnostics of intestinal pathology MCSC named after a.s. loginov are always ready to help patients.
