Constipation
Constipation is when your bowel motions ('poo' or faeces) are infrequent / incomplete and you have trouble passing them because they are often dry and hard.

The Bristol Stool Chart was developed in 1997 as a clinical assessment tool. There are seven types of stools (faeces) according to the Bristol Stool Chart. The Bristol Stool Chart or Bristol Stool Scale is a medical aid designed to classify faeces into seven groups.
