Obstructive Defecation Syndrome (ODS) is a condition that makes bowel movements difficult and incomplete, leading to discomfort and distress. If left untreated, it can significantly impact daily life. At Lux Hospitals in Hyderabad, we offer specialized treatment for ODS using advanced medical techniques and personalized care plans. Our expert team of proctologists and general surgeon ensures effective management of ODS, addressing both physical and psychological aspects.
What is Obstructive Defecation Syndrome (ODS)?
Obstructive Defecation Syndrome (ODS) is a type of chronic constipation where patients experience difficulty passing stools despite feeling the urge. It often results from pelvic floor dysfunction, rectal prolapse, or structural abnormalities in the rectum. Unlike regular constipation, ODS requires specific treatments, including behavioral therapy, surgical intervention, and dietary modifications.
Causes of Obstructive Defecation Syndrome
ODS can be caused by multiple factors, including:
- Pelvic Floor Dysfunction: Weak or uncoordinated pelvic muscles can prevent normal stool passage.
- Rectal Prolapse: The rectum may slip from its normal position, causing obstruction.
- Intussusception: A condition where a part of the intestine folds into another section.
- Anorectal Dysfunctions: Abnormalities in the rectum and anal canal that obstruct defecation.
- Neurological Disorders: Nerve damage affecting bowel function.
- Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD): Some individuals with OCD may develop compulsive bowel habits that contribute to ODS.
Symptoms of Obstructive Defecation Syndrome
- Frequent straining during bowel movements
- A sensation of incomplete evacuation
- The need for manual assistance to pass stool
- Hard or lumpy stools
- Lower abdominal discomfort or bloating
- Increased frequency of bowel movements without relief
If you experience any of these symptoms, seeking treatment for Obstructive Defecation Syndrome in Hyderabad at Lux Hospitals can provide relief and improve your quality of life.
