Can Another Bottle Of Magnesium Citrate Help To Remove Stools Due To Impacted Bowel ?

Two years ago I had a total block of the bowel. Had surgery to remove scare tissue. Now I have an impacted bowel. Had X-rays, CT scan. Shows lots of stool. Took one bottle of Magnesium Citrate. 8 hours later had a movement, runny with pieces of stool. I am eating some dried fruit and broth but get bloated right away. I can't seem to expell all the stool backed up. Can I use another bottle of Magnesium Citrate to try move more of the stool?

i think now impacted stools has moved, now you should drinks lots of water, eat salad, papaya. You can take magnisium sulfate but not full bottle but two three table spoon full doses. Magnisum sulphate taken in high doses causes depression or respratory sedation.
