   or traumatic brain injury), chronic stress and high nervous and mental load and so on.

The mechanism of constipation is often associated with increased or decreased motor activity of smooth muscles of the intestine. Reduced motor activity leads to atonic constipation due to the fact that the stool is not moving through the intestines. Bowel muscles sometimes has a tendency to convulsive spastic contractions.
