Another subtle yet significant undercurrent within fecal impaction involves alterations in appetite and nutritional habits.

It’s a gentle navigation through a landscape that is at once physical, emotional, and social, recognizing that our relationship with food is not merely nutritive but also deeply intertwined with our emotional and social worlds.
