Poop that gets stuck halfway out is typically a sign of constipation but may indicate a more serious problem. Some people find that adjusting their position or drinking water will get the stool moving again. Pooping, or having a bowel movement, is the last stage of digestion. Everything a person eats and drinks passes through their digestive system. Waste products from digestion form feces, or stools, which people expel when they poop. If someone has difficulty pooping, they may be constipated. Having fewer than three bowel movements in a week can indicate constipation. Other potential reasons a stool gets stuck may include certain medications, cancer treatments, and underlying medical conditions, such as diabetes and hypothyroidism. (责任编辑:) |
