What are the symptoms of constipation due to damp-heat?

Symptoms of constipation due to damp-heat typically include chest tightness, epigastric fullness, dull pain in both flanks, distending pain in the lower back, nausea and vomiting, thirst or a preference for warm drinks, fever with sweating, short and dark yellow urine, and loose, sticky, unsatisfactory bowel movements. These conditions are often closely related to spleen deficiency and kidney deficiency. The spleen governs transformation and transportation, while the kidney governs body fluids. When the spleen fails to transport nutrients and distribute body fluids, and the kidneys fail to regulate fluid metabolism, such symptoms may arise.
