Taking Fiber Supplementation For Constipation. Difficult Bowel Movements While Not On Supplements
I get constipation alot and take fiber supplements for it. I was constipated for the last 4 or 5 days, and started back on my fiber supplements 2 days ago after running out and not taking it for a while. Now I made a bowel movement this morning but my stomach still feels full and hurts if I push on it. What does that mean?
