Suggest Treatment For Constipation Problems
Hi, I keep having the same constipation problem for 3 months now, and I've tried exlax's, fibre, fibre supplements, anemas, and changing my diet. Yesterday i had enough of the continueous bloating because I hadn't gone for 5-6 days, I took 2 exlax's and got really bad pains. I'm ok now but I wasn't Able to lay down for about 2 hours because I would have to race to the toilet within matter of seconds. I just went, twice, and this time, it was pure water, but with the color brown. Should I go to the hospital? Or will I be ok if I just wait it out?

Hi
You need to see a doctor about this and you need colonoscopy
You may have a stool impaction or this may be irritable bowel syndrome but it's gone on long enough that it needs evaluation
