Is functional constipation related to the incidence of enteric cancer?

Functional constipation is a common digestive system problem, usually manifested in less than three defecation times a week, associated with such symptoms as defecation difficulties and rigid defecation. Although functional constipation per se does not lead directly to big intestine cancer, the relationship between the two is complex and multifaceted and deserves in-depth discussion. The causes of functional constipation are diverse and include, inter alia, lifestyle habits, colon motor disorders, inadequate abdominal and pelvic muscle tension, abuse of laxatives and old age factors. In terms of living habits, diets that lack cellulose or moisture, food intake, and fast-paced life and work stress can interfere with normal defecation habits and thus trigger constipation. Constituency disorders are usually associated with intestinal irritation syndrome, caused by colon and ethyl intestinal spasms, which can lead to symptoms of constipation, abdominal pain or abdominal swelling. Inadequate abdominal and pelvic muscle tension reduces the excrement drive and makes excreta difficult to extricate. In addition, the long-term use of laxatives may lead to drug dependence, further exacerbating the problem of constipation. Conditions such as infirmity, inactivity or intestinal spasm may also lead to difficulties in excrement for older persons. Intestine cancer is the cause of malignant carcinogenesis occurring in the upper skin of the cortal mucous membrane as a result of various carcinogenic factors, such as the environment or genetics, the causes of which have not yet been identified, but may be related to the following factors: 1. Environmental factors: the incidence of cortal cancer is positively related to high fat consumption in food. In addition, micronutrient deficiencies and changes in living habits may affect the incidence of big intestine cancer. 2. Genetic factors: Large intestine cancer has a significant family concentration and high risk of morbidity among those with a history of big intestine cancer in the family. 3. Cervical adenomas: The incidence of adenomas is consistent with that of the colon, with a significant increase in the incidence of carcinomas among patients with adenomas. Chronic enteritis: Chronic inflammation in the intestinal tract, such as ulcer enteritis and changes in intestinal inflammation caused by schistosomiasis, is likely to develop in part into cancer. Relationship between functional constipation and cortex cancer: Although functional constipation does not in itself directly cause cortex cancer, there are some potential links between the two. 1. Accumulation of harmful substances in the intestinal tract: functional constipation leads to excessive excreta stay in the intestinal tract and increases the absorption of harmful toxins in the intestinal tract. These harmful substances can damage intestinal cell DNA and trigger gene mutation, thus increasing the risk of big intestine cancer. 2. Higher intestinal pressure: When constipated, higher intestinal pressure may oppress the surrounding organizational structure, including large intestinal mucous membranes. Long-term pressure can cause intestinal cell damage and increase the risk of cancer. Genetic and lifestyle factors: Functional constipation and enteric cancer may be associated with genetic and lifestyle factors. For example, lack of cellulose, high-fat diets and lack of exercise may increase the risk of functional constipation as well as the risk of intestine cancer. Preventive measures: In order to prevent functional constipation and to reduce the risk of big intestine cancer, the following measures can be taken: 1. Adapting diets: Increased intake of dietary fibres, such as more foods of all cereals and fresh vegetables, helps to promote intestinal creeping and ease constipation. At the same time, it is also important to maintain adequate water intake. Relaxation: Avoiding excessive stress and anxiety and maintaining a relaxed mood will help improve intestinal functions. 3. Appropriate exercise: Appropriate exercise can facilitate intestinal creeping and contribute to the excretion of poop. 4. Avoiding the abuse of laxatives: The long-term abuse of laxatives can lead to drug dependence and reduce the normal intestinal function. If necessary, laxatives should be used under the supervision of a doctor. 5. Periodic examinations: Periodic anal and intestinal examination, as well as general and sub-fast tests, help to identify and address potential problems at an early stage. Concluding remarks: The relationship between functional constipation and cortex cancer is complex and, although functional constipation does not itself lead directly to cortex cancer, there are some potential links between the two. The risk of functional constipation and big intestine cancer can be reduced through measures such as diet adjustment, relaxation, proper exercise, avoidance of abuse of laxatives and periodic examinations. For people with functional constipation or a family history of intestinal cancer, more attention should be paid to these preventive measures to safeguard intestinal health.
