Constipation is a very common problem and usually, all people have to face this problem at some time or the other. But some people are always constipated. Such people have to face problems related to the stomach as well as the skin.

In this regard, we spoke to skin expert Dr Amit Bangia to know what is the effect on the skin due to constipation, he says, 'If you are constipated, then obviously your stomach would not have been cleaned properly. If the stomach remains dirty, its effect is visible on the skin as well.

Dr Amit also explains what problems can arise in your skin due to constipation.

Skin rash

If you have a problem with constipation, then irritation, itching and rashes etc. are seen in the skin. Usually, you will see red streaks or pimples on the face, which will also ooze and itch from time to time. Sometimes these rashes increase to such an extent that they become sore when nails are applied to them and when they dry up, the crusts get frozen and scars are formed on the face. If you see signs of rashes, then first of all you should solve this problem by consulting a skin expert.

Pimples

If your stomach is not clean, then the heat of the stomach on the skin will start coming out of the skin pores in the form of oil. Sometimes this causes the skin pores to get clogged and then this oil blocks these pores, which increases the chances of getting pimples. Sometimes they appear in the form of whiteheads and blackheads. For those who already have problems with pimples, this condition becomes even more serious and painful.

Oily skin

Excessive oiliness of the skin is also fatal. This is also a sign of constipation. Sometimes you may have skin-related problems even after having too much oily skin. Especially you may have problems with pimples, rashes, whiteheads and blackheads. If you have more oily skin, you may also have the problem of large skin pores. That's why you must keep deep cleaning your skin and use such products on the face, which control the oil of the skin.

Dull skin

Sometimes due to constipation, dead skin starts accumulating in the skin and due to this, the face starts to look dull. That's why you must scrub the skin at least twice a week. Keep in mind that you should use mild scrub only so that your skin pores are not large.

Dehydrated skin

If you drink less water, then obviously you will have a constipation problem. But its effect will also be visible on your skin. Your skin will become dry and there will be no glow on the skin.
