What Causes Bowel Movements Trouble With Less Stool, Cramping And Flatulence?
Hello, Lately I ve been having trouble having bowel movements. Usually it ends up in small swirly looking pieces. I m also having cramping and a lot of gas. I ve tried some laxatives and such but to no avail nothing was fixed. Its almost like my body is not producing any stool from all the food I ve been eating. What could it be?
