10 Commandments for Overcoming Constipation with Eungkohyung
Description
Book Introduction
The only book you need if you suffer from constipation!
“Fighting well is ultimately living well.”


Dr. Sangmin Yoon, the director of the Central Proctology Clinic, who has been focusing on biofeedback treatment of anal diseases for over 10 years and is also active on the YouTube channel 'Eungkkohyung', has compiled the '10 Commandments for Overcoming Constipation' based on his extensive clinical experience.
It comprehensively covers the complex causes of constipation (eating habits, bowel movements, bowel habits, psychological factors, etc.) that cannot be resolved simply by taking medication, and provides solutions that anyone can implement.

This book, written by a practicing medical professional, is a practical guide that focuses on practical aspects that are often overlooked in existing medical books.
From a paradigm shift that "constipation is not a disease, but a management issue," to symptom-specific treatment methods, accurate dietary fiber and water intake, and lifestyle habits that stimulate bowel movement, we focus on bridging the gap between medicine and everyday life.
This is a never-before-seen practical guide to constipation that helps readers understand, manage, and overcome constipation through entertaining and clear explanations.

Into the book
Constipation is not something that can be cured.
Can you say you'll never have constipation again after taking medication for a month? That's not going to happen, is it? Constipation is something to be managed rather than cured, and rather than trying to get better, you should strive to overcome it.
Through this book, I hope to help you overcome constipation without resorting to treatment.

Many patients who come to the proctology department focus on stool and the anus.
The stool is hard and gets stuck in the anus.
I think my anus is blocked.
Because of the discomfort in the anus, it feels as if the constipation is caused by the anus.
And it often happens that people say things like this.
“Please, I want to have surgery.
“It’s so hard to have a bowel movement, I really want to die.” But in many cases, there is nothing wrong with the anus at all.
--- p.20

Most hospitals are not interested in treating constipation.
Because it is considered a common symptom in patients with chronic diseases, it is often prescribed for one or two months without any explanation.
--- p.25

Active treatment doesn't just mean diligently taking medication. It means understanding the cause of your constipation, learning how to address it, and implementing these measures in your daily life.
--- p.28

Have you ever seen someone who takes blood pressure medication feel sad about taking it? They just take it without thinking.
I have no thoughts.
I have no intention of quitting.
Constipation is the same.
We just happen to be a little slower, more sensitive, or more uncomfortable than others in the process of creating, moving, and excreting stool.
…The gaps that cannot be filled through effort can be filled with medicine, allowing me to live a more peaceful, safe, and prosperous life.
--- p.29

That's what treatment is.
Is there a medication that will make you have good bowel movements for the rest of your life after taking it for a month? There are very few medications that actually cure it.
It just helps you regulate it.
Rather than prescribing medication to control bowel movements while eating spicy food, it is important to educate patients so that they can stop eating spicy food.
There is a completely different difference between knowingly eating something and being willing to feel uncomfortable and eating it without knowing and continuing to feel uncomfortable.
--- p.67

Publisher's Review
■ Anyone can manage constipation.
If only you knew how!


Constipation is a painful symptom that everyone experiences, but no one easily talks about.
From eating to defecation, it disrupts the order of daily life, but most people just ignore it out of shame and ignorance.
"10 Commandments for Overcoming Constipation" is a book that teaches you how to properly deal with such inconveniences in everyday life.
Rather than simple folk remedies or one-time prescriptions, we present a 'truly effective solution to relieving constipation' developed by a practicing surgeon who personally treated numerous patients.
For those whose daily routine has been disrupted by constipation, this book will be a much-needed 'prescription for life.'

■ Identify complex causes and find answers in real life

This book questions the existing paradigm that views constipation as simply a symptom of not being able to pass stool.
"10 Commandments for Overcoming Constipation" analyzes the complex causes of constipation, including dietary habits, intestinal motility, bowel movements, and awareness of defecation, and meticulously explains how these factors lead to various types of constipation.
Based on extensive clinical experience, the author classifies constipation into ten types and introduces customized prescriptions for each type in the form of 10 commandments.
Messages like, "The looser the stool, the harder it is to see," "It's okay if you don't see it every day," and "You don't have to go to the bathroom just because you feel uncomfortable" break readers' stereotypes and lead them to meaningful changes that can be implemented in their daily lives.

■ The real story of constipation from 'Eungkkohyung', the doctor who knows his patients best

The author, Dr. Sangmin Yoon, graduated from Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine and completed his residency and fellowship in surgery at Samsung Medical Center. He has been dedicated to treating anal diseases and bowel disorders for over 10 years.
Currently, as the director of the Central Hang-gu Surgery Department and the operator of the YouTube channel “Eung-kko-hyung,” he simultaneously provides professional medical knowledge and patient education.
In particular, the biofeedback treatment implemented since the clinic's opening has been gaining popularity among patients through word of mouth for its tangible improvement effects, attracting patients from all over the country.
This book goes beyond simple medical explanations; it is filled with the author's sincere desire to guide patients through the process of "relearning how to defecate."

Constipation is not an embarrassing symptom.
Also, it is not a disease that can be cured in a short period of time.
But with this book, constipation can be managed and overcome.
The reason why the message that 'fighting well is ultimately living well' resonates so deeply is because it is accompanied by a deep understanding of patients and trust accumulated through clinical experience.
If you are a reader who is suffering from constipation, now is the time to regain peace of mind in your intestines with this book.
