Suggest Treatment For Chronic Constipation And Lower Abdominal Pain
I have a chronic constipation problem and pain in lower left stomach. When I do have a movement with/without laxative it is very small stool and sometimes explosive diahrea. I was very injured on my left side last December and this problem has persisted?

Hello,
As a first line management, you can take laxatives like lactulose for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persists better to consult a physician and plan for a CT or MRI to rule out possible causes like bowel related problems like structure or growth.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
