dietary incompatibility, inactivity, comorbidities, traumas, etc. The most
common symptoms include lower gastrointestinal motility problems such as
constipation and fecal incontinence. In the geriatric age group, slow colon transit,
decreased fiber intake, and colonic segment contractions cause constipation. It
