| Abstract: | Background: Constipation is a condition that makes it difficult to empty the intestine and is typically accompanied by hardened feces. One of the most prevalent complaints experienced by people worldwide is constipation. Massage induces peristalsis, shortens colonic transit time, and boosts bowel movement frequency. The ricinoleic acid included in castor oil has a potent laxative action and facilitates the simple removal of feces from the body. Therefore, the study's goal is to investigate the effectiveness of abdominal castor oil massage in the treatment of constipation. Method: A total of 10 subjects were recruited who fulfilled the inclusion & exclusion criteria. Pre-assessments were recorded and intervention was given for 10 days for 15 mins. The tool used for screening and data collection is PAC-SYM questionnaire. Results: Analysis of data was done by SPSS software. By paired t-test, there was a significant reduction in the mean of post PAC-SYM scores (p-value <0.001) when compared to baseline after the intervention. Conclusion: Present study proved that there was significant improvement in the symptoms of constipation after castor oil massage for 10 days. Hence, castor oil abdominal massage can be used as a therapeutic measure to relieve constipation. |
