What Should I Do For The Clear Bowel Movement And Have Severe Back Ache And Laxatives Have Not Given Any Relief?

I recently have had some severe back pain, taking 1/2 to 1 lortab a day with 1 soma at night so I can sleep. Naproxin during the day. My upper belly is distended but not painful. I have taken laxatives for 5 days in a row with no relief. I drink nothing but water with limes and oranges in the water, 6-8 24 oz glasses a day. Bran for breakfast, I may have a small bowel movement but not anything like I should. Any suggestions?
