Brief Answer:
Follow up with a bit more information...

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have gone through your query and here is my advice.

As per your history, increased colonic stool burden or fecal impaction should be evaluated.

Please follow up with a bit more information,
Do you have history of constipation, abdominal pain, bloating, nausea, fever, blood in stool?

Are you taking any other medications?

In that case, I would suggest you to consult with gastroenterologist for detailed clinical examination. He may procure computed tomography abdomen, Colonoscopy SOS as per evaluation.

Along with that, take diet rich in Fibre, more fruits and vegetables and plenty of fluids. Do regular exercise for 30 to 40mins daily. Avoid fatty/fast /processed foods.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further....
