What Should I Do About Constipation, Hard Stool And Difficulty In Passing Motion Despite Taking Cremaffin?

I’m having constipation for long and I used to take creamaffin whenever I feel hard stool. May be continuously for three days and then after 2 or 3 days (not daily). But now a day even if I take creamaffin it bit hard to pass the stool. It’s coming dry and later it will be loose. kindly advise me to cure from this problem.

Hello,

You are suggested to take fiber rich food and adequate amount of water and fluids to help better bowel movement. You are suggested to avoid taking red meat, processed food, processed grains, fatty food, as they trigger constipation. Avoid taking high FODMAP food, milk and dairy products and alcohol, they cause constipation.

You are suggested to take fruits, veggies, berries, pulses, whole wheat bread, cereals and pasta. Avoid refined flour. Take papayas (raw / ripe), prunes, olive oil and probiotics to get rid of constipation. Exercise daily, take high fiber supplements, stool softeners, lubricants and stimulants like Bisacodyl.

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

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
