I always am constipated or have loose stool. Lately it has been smelling terrible, and has white stringy things in it. It looks like I am serously deficatieing bits of tiolet paper. I have been having bad itching and also take Metformin, I am always constipated unless I take the metformn. I had pin worms last year, I also fear they are back. I am bloated often, tired and have stress issues as well. I have had 3 colonocopys in the past over polips as well. I am a 22 year old female. victorian.drops
Dear Ms, first you should get a stool analysis to find out wether the worms are back or not and to identify any infection if present. second you should take lactulose syrup 3 times daily to treat constipation. third you should have some diatery modifications , you should have a high fiber diet with increasing the amounts of vegetables and fruits especially citrus fruits . you should also stick to whole wheat carbohydrates and avoid spicy, oily foods. you should drink plenty of fluids at least 8 cups of fluids daily to avoid constipation.
