Excessive defecation in the elderly will lead to changes in coronary artery and cerebral blood flow. Due to the decrease of cerebral blood flow, fainting may occur during defecation. Angina pectoris and myocardial infarction can occur in patients with insufficient coronary blood supply.
The increase of intra-abdominal pressure during forced defecation can cause or aggravate hemorrhoids, and the anal canal is damaged during forced defecation, which can cause perianal diseases such as anal fissure. Intestinal obstruction, fecal ulcer, urinary retention and fecal incontinence will occur after fecal impaction.

Treatment of constipation
1. Insist on taking exercise, and encourage patients to take exercise as much as they can, such as walking, walking or massaging abdominal muscles with both hands several times a day, so as to enhance gastrointestinal peristalsis. Qin Ying, a patient who has been bedridden for a long time, turns over for circular abdominal massage or hot compress.
2. Cultivate good defecation habits and conduct health education to help patients establish normal defecation behavior. You can practice defecation once every morning, even if you don't intend to defecate, you can wait for a while to form a conditioned reflex. At the same time, to create a quiet and comfortable environment, choose a sitting toilet.
3. Eat a reasonable diet. The elderly should eat more cereals and vegetables, melons and beans containing crude fiber, and drink more water, at least 1500ml per day, especially drinking a cup of warm water every morning or before meals, which can effectively prevent constipation.
