You appear to have Chronic Constipation (Vibandha), mainly due to Vata imbalance, likely from low fiber intake, low water intake, and sedentary habits. — understand with example -“Just like dry soil cracks when it doesn’t get water, your intestines also become dry when the body lacks enough water and fiber. So the stool becomes hard and difficult to pass.” -------Today: walk + warm fluids + wait (don’t overuse laxative again immediately)
