Thoughts and emotions triggered by stress can have an effect on stomach and bowel movement. Physical signs and symptoms of stress overload include chest pain, rapid heartbeat, loss of sexual drive, diarrhoea/ constipation. In this article we have tried to enlighten the association of stress and constipation.
