Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain constipation can occur due to a number of causes like sudden change in dietary habits,excess intake of dairy products,excess intake of antacids,eating disorders, lack of dietary fibres,side effects of medication,thyroid disorders, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, laxative abuse, stress etc..
I would suggest you to consult a Gastroenterologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like Barium swallow, Colonoscopy, blood tests etc can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..
You can be advised to take a fibre rich diet with plenty of green leafy vegetables, fruits and salads..
You should drink plenty of water..
Take stool softeners like Docusate..
You can also be advised laxatives like Polyethylene Glycol [Miralax] and lubricants like castor oil..
Limit intake of dairy products..
You can also be advised prescription drugs like Linclotide and Lubiprostone..


Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
