What Causes Diarrhea After Taking Milk Of Magnesia For Constipation?

I was severely constipated and the Dr. Told me to talk some milk of magnesium. Then the next day I was still a little impacted down by my rectum so I called my Dr. A.d asked if it was ok to take another dose and she said yes. Now, I ve been having diarrhea every 15 minutes to a half hour almost all day and my rectum is very swollen and in pain.
