Hi dear,
Thanks for choosing HealthcareMagic for your query,

To increase the urge of poop apart from justvtaking probiotic yet a drastic life style changes should be done.

I would suggest you to increase the amount of fibres in your diet.
Take one cup of fresh fruits and vegetables daily.
Drink 8 glasses of water daily.
Take one glass XXXXXXX warm water daily before going for stoots.Water makes stool soft and easy to pass
Take vegetable salad with sprinkled olive oil daily.
Avoid meats and dairy products.
Take a lots of youghut with food.
Metamucil should be taken twice daily they make stool bulky and easy to pass.
Just probiotic will not do you have to follow all advice.
Chew food properly 20 times before swallowing.
For bloating and gases 40mg nexium can be taken daily.


Thanks
