What Causes Swelling In Face And Hands And Trouble In Bowel Movements?

I have always had trouble being able to poop. It has been over a week since last BM. I am having swelling in my face, hands, and legs. Is there any connection? I had a CT done and it showed a partial blockage, I have had a BM since then I am just wondering if it getting worse. Sorry I don t have the money to pay.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the constipation then the most common cause would be less water intake and less fiber diet, so drink more water, have more fiber containing diet, keep regular habit of defection even if it is not the need to go for still be inside and sit there for while no matter if do not pass the stool, no need to exert the force, Isabgol powder can be tried two spoon prior to bed hope this information helps.
