Suggest Treatment For Constipation

Hi, I'm 17 years old. Recently I've been having wierd bowel movements. For a week I was extremely constipated and when I did have a bm, they were twisted, contorted , and abnormally dense. I've been regular now but one had a white sting-like substance attached to it, about an inch or two long. Now my bm has black spots on it. I'm becoming concerned because lately I've been getting dizzy and lightheaded. Ive lost ten pounds. Please help.
