Q. What is rectal constipation (outlet obstruction)?

A.

This describes a condition where the stool has completely descended into the rectum (just above the anus), but the patient is unable to evacuate because the anal sphincter fails to relax or they do not know how to bear down.

📝 Detailed Answer

"다 나왔는데 문이 안 열려서 못 나가는 상황"입니다.

배에 힘을 주면 항문이 열려야 하는데, 오히려 항문을 꽉 조이는 '모순적인 운동(치골직장근 이완 부전)'을 하는 분들이 많습니다. 변비약보다는 바이오피드백 치료나 배변 자세 교정이 필요한 유형입니다.
