Hello,

I think you can modify your diet having more fruits and vegetables and fibers. Drink more water. Going for a walk and increasing physical activity can help the bowel to move. Stop taking steroids anymore.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
