Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be most likely due to gastritis caused by NSAIDs and muscle relaxants. Gastritis can give bloaing as well as constipation. Taking Proton pump inhibitors like esomeprazole and motility enhancers like domperidone will be helpful to clear out your problems. It is better to stop NSAID and muscle relaxant if possible.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
