General & Family Physician,  's  Response
I warmly Welcome you!

Its not good and normal looking to defecate once a week. You have chronic constipation and need treatment.


Take Lactulose syrup 4TSF at night. Take Ispaghola Husk before breakfast. Take plenty of fluids and fruits. No refined meats, no refined grains. Whole grains food is best for you. Daily 250mL of Coconut water is superb dietary fiber supplement. If you urge to defecate but still unable to pass the feces, please use Glycerine Suppositories for easy and smooth defecation process.


Keep physical activity, and for that jogging is best for you. Daily 10,000 steps at a healthy pace 4 times a week.


Hope it helps. If you need further assistance, contact me anytime.

Regards!
