Suggest Treatment For Constipation And Abdominal Cramps

I am not able to poop. I have really bad cramps, have had ct scan, colonoscopy, blood work. I get sharp pains but can t go. Drinking laxative daily. About 1 month Everything went away, able to go to the bathroom . No back at square one with only new symptom, an enlarged spleen. Any ideas of what s wrong and how to fix it?

It is habitual constipation and may be associated with megacolon. It is better to take natural bowel regulator instead of purgatives which are habit forming. Enema is an alternative and effective way to deal with such cases of habitual constipation. Use olive oil enema alternate with osmotic enema.
