• I feel very constipated. Could there be any blockages in my colon system?

I suffer from severe constipation and it has become a big issue. Could this be because of any blockages in my colon? Can it be removed surgically?

If you have never had a colonoscopy I would plan on scheduling one and then doing a constipation work up which can include sitzmark study

You should see a gastroenterologist and have a colonoscopy followed by some other workup for constipation. If a surgical issue is identified then they can consult a surgeon for further treatment.
