Hey guys, quick question. When a snake is incredibly bloated around its cloaca and hasn't pooped since eating, does this mean that it's constipated?

I have heard my sister in law talk about her vet squeezing down the length f her corn snake to get the poop out. Is this something that is normally done to ball pythons as well? Or just corn snakes?

Thank!
