What are the ways to promote bowel movements when constipated?

People who often suffer from constipation have more or less experienced the painful experience of being unable to defecate for a long time, and feeling as if something is blocking the anus. Severe cases may cause intestinal obstruction. If patients with constipation want to defecate easily, they should eat more laxative and intestinal lubricating foods, because these foods are rich in fiber.
