What Causes Constipation And Painful Bowel Movement?
Good afternoon. I have been having trouble having a bowel movement for months. I have tried everything and the pain is very severe now. it has been over two weeks and I have had as much as a cat. I have changed my diet to a high fiber, eat yogurt, spinach, used fleet enimas, sttol softeners, senicot, and even a prescription to make myself go. I have also use the powder given to someone going in for a colenoscop and nothing is working. I now have a milky discharge from mu anus but still no poop. What should I do now? short of the emergency room, I have ran out of options. Please help
