Suggest Treatment For Mild Constipation While On Clonazepam

Hi! Quick question - I m mildly constipated but still have a bowel movement every day. This afternoon I got a major stomach cramp at the top of my stomach, under my right ribcage. After a few minutes, it went away. But the rest of the day it feels sore. Could constipation cause this cramp? Do I need to check with my doctor? Additional information: I m phasing down on clonazapam (sp?) for anxiety and diarrhea attacks because I don t like the meds. Down to 1/4 tablet of .5 mg from a half tablet a week ago. Most I was taking was one .5 mg/day. Could that cause my cramp? THANKS so much! Jan

Hi.
I've gone through your query. I can understand your anxiety.

Lumps in clitoris could be due to the hair removal technique, minor infections like Fordyce spots, Bartholin's cyst etc. I advice you to,
-Use body wash like benzoyl peroxide 5% prior to your  hair removal techniques.
- a course of Antibiotics (tab. Amoxiclav 625mg twice daily) if needed
- Avoid using tampons as it may worsen your symptoms
- wear cotton innerwear.
- Maintain good hygiene.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Get well soon.
Regards,
Dr. Yogapriya V, General and family physician.
